Minnesplass i Trondheim

Julius Paltiel's Square is a memorial space in Trondheim, Norway, dedicated to Julius Paltiels, a Norwegian Jew and Auschwitz survivor. The square serves as a contemplative green space that encourages dialogue and play, and is versatile for temporary projects. It is designed to nurture discussions around the fundamental human right to freedom, symbolized by a round table representing democratic values where everyone has an equal voice.

Grønn korridorutvikling

The park at Kalvskinnet is part of the city's historical green corridor, aiming to enhance this by developing Julius Paltiel's Square into a contemporarily significant area. Besides its function as a memorial, the park's intention is to maintain a green lung for the community, promoting recreation along the Nidelven River. The development includes strategic placement of vegetation like cherry trees to extend the park seamlessly and integrate with the urban surroundings.

Estetikk og samarbeidspartnere

Aesthetic considerations include a circular table made from acid-proof iron and hand-casted epoxy, adding a colorful, illuminated presence at night. This memorial park seeks to balance remembrance and forward-looking aspirations, making it a fitting tribute while also providing a daily-use urban space for Trondheim's residents. Key collaborators include landscape architect Nina Wang and light designer Sigrid Stjernevang, with the project acknowledged by media outlet NRK.
