Frogner Manor (Frogner Hovedgård) is located on a former estate in an area that became part of today's borough of Frogner in Oslo, Norway.

The borough was originally the ground and property of Frogner Manor, a splendid 18th-century country estate now housing the Oslo City Museum.
The buyer was the director of the Modums Blaafarveværk, Jacob Benjamin Wegner, who was married to Henriette Seyler of the Hamburg Berenberg-Gossler-Seyler banking dynasty.

Frogner Manor (Frogner Hovedgård) is a former estate in today's borough of Frogner in Oslo, Norway.

Wegner's heirs sold it to Thomas Johannessen Heftye in 1864, and his heirs sold it to the municipality in 1889, thus making it the first forest owned by Oslo municipality.
•
From the mid 17th century to the late 19th century, it was owned by wealthy officials or burghers of Christiania, but it was sold to the municipality of Kristiania in 1896 to make room for urban expansion and a new cemetery (Vestre gravlund).
