Inspiring photographs of this contemporary ecclesiastical structure in central Oslo ST. HALLVARD KIRKE OG KLOSTER (St. Hallvard Church and Convent). The modern abbey houses medieval ruins of the original cathedral and cloistered dwelling quarters for the Carmelite nuns, and is in all a powerful example of sacred space in secular surroundings, and of architectural sensitivity to ancient and modern practice. Handsome drawings and excellent color photographs make this an important document of Nordic urban planning.
