Filipstad is a neighborhood in the Frogner borough in Oslo, Norway. It serves both as a major container port and ferry terminal for the city. The Oslo-Kiel ferry docks by the Hjortneskaia at Filipstad. ==History== The neighborhood grew from a single property ''Philipsborg'', named after the pharmacist Philip Moth, around 1650. From 1805 the property belonged to the Heftye family. The villa at the site dates from 1864 and was initiated by banker Jørgen H. Heftye who commissioned the famous architect G. A. Bull for its design.〔http://www.romeiendom.no/generaldirektorboligen-pa-filipstad〕 The property is now represented with the mentioned building Villa Filipstad at the address ''Munkedamsveien 62''. The former Filipstad inlet (between Tjuvholmen and Munkedamsveien) used to serve as a place for bathing, but the water was contaminated by the Filipstad stream. From around 1870 the inlet was gradually filled in to serve as a future port. When the Norwegian State Railways bought the area in 1909, the villa was made the residence of the company's director. After the takeover by the State the area was seriously converted into a port. In 1943 the Filipstad Accident took place here. The Drammen Line went through the area until 1980, after which it is served by the Skøyen–Filipstad Line. The neighboring area Aker Brygge, a former ship yard, went through an urban renewal in the 1980s. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Filipstad, Norway」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
