The Memorial Park in Skien is a park that houses a memorial dedicated to the war sailor, the boy from Skauen and the Milorg soldier. The monument, created by the artist Carl E. Paulsen, was erected in 1950 and stands as a symbol of gratitude for the efforts during the war. The park is designed to create an atmosphere characterized by reflection and respect for history.

In addition to its memorial, the Memorial Park serves as a gathering point for annual commemorations, including Liberation Day on May 8 and National Day on May 17. These events help to preserve and communicate the history associated with the war and those who fought for freedom. The park's significance thus extends beyond its physical design, and it plays an important role in the local community's celebration of national events.
