Hornemansgården located in Kongens gate 7 is one of Trondheim's large 18th century wooden pals and fills the entire quarter between the square, Kongens gate, Vår Lady cemetery and Presidentveita. The quarter originated as a result of Cicignon's regulation after the city fire in 1681. Here Petter Sylow, the agent's on the county writer, erected a farm that burned in 1708. The entire quarter was left uninhabited until 1720, when Stadsfysikus and Lagmann Paul Dons (1689–1748) bought all Auction, except the eastern part towards the cemetery. Dons later took over the rest of the quarter and erected several other buildings. The main building still exists as the ground floor of the current Hornemansgården. There was a building on one floor along Kongens gate from the eastern main entrance to the corner towards the square, with a side wing towards the square. Double cuisine walls at both ends confirm that this house was preserved and built when the entire farm was totally changed later. The farm that Dons listed was described in the fire rate from 1766, the year after a new owner had taken over:

During the renovation of the park in the period 1996 – 1997, the park was opened and incorporated into a continuous pedestrian area between Bispegata and Jomfrugata. During the renovation, the park was adapted to the historical elements such as original axes, vegetation and fences. The design consists of a circular space with a fountain with benches and planting. Around the fountain and through the park, pedestrian zones have been established that consist of both gravel paths and slate walkways. The park's royal monument to King Olav V was designed by Harald Wårvik.
