Kirkeruinens og kirkegårdens historie fortælles på en mindesten, der er placeret østligt i udkanten af parken. Og selve kirkegården mindes ved et kors rest i den nordlige del.
English: Skt. Oluf's cemetery - now closed for burials - has been in use since the 12th century. Estimated by archaeologists. The last burial took place in 1815. Since 1878, the cemetery has been left as a public park - a small green oasis in the city's busy streetscape.
The history of the church ruin and the cemetery is told on a memorial stone located east of the edge of the park. And the cemetery itself is commemorated by a cross remnant in the northern part.
