History
Opened1902

Located at Elisenberg in Frogner, the tram stop was opened by Kristiania Elektriske Sporvei in 1902 as part of the Frogner Line which ran between Majorstuen and Frogner.[1] Today, it is served by line 12, which operates between Majorstuen and Kjelsås.

An underground mainline railway station named Elisenberg was planned to be built 30 metres (98 ft) underneath the tram stop, but the project was never completed and the station was never opened to traffic.[2]
