Rock Art in Oslo

At Ekeberg are two different sets of rock art. One site is with carvings dating back to the stone age, I have concentrated of visiting the bronze age carvings on the plateau called Ekeberg.

At this flat rock surface are more than 100 cup marks. There are also some irregular lines suggesting more figures, however they are very hard to distinguish or to make out any specific motives. The cup marks are easy to see and are deep and clear. A footpath goes straight past the carvings and a information sign has been posted at the site.
