Klippfiskkjerringa
By Tore Bjorn Skjolsvik

Bronze statue of the Klipfish wife to commemorate the workers on the klippfish rocks, sculpted by Tore Bjorn Skjolsvik. It was a gift to the city on its 250 year anniversary, and was unveiled by HRH Queen Sonja in 1992 with three genuine klippfish workers present. The statue has become one of the town's best-known symbols and photo motifs. The statue is situated on the Pier, close to Fisketrappa/Radhusplassen.

Minebøssa
Minebox
By Nils Fiske (1962)
Minebøssa was originally a memorial to sailors from Kristiansund who lost their lives during the First World War and was first placed on a plinth at Lyhsalmenningen.
After World War II, the minesweeper was reconstructed and in 1962 moved to Rådhustrappa, in memory of fallen sailors from both world wars.
In 1982 Minebøssa was moved to Piren, where the Klippfiskkjerringa stands today, and in 1991 the monument was moved again, on the initiative of Nordmøre Krigsseilerforening. This time it was placed at the far end of the Pier as part of a beautification of the square which included new paving with a built-in compass rose, lighting and railings. The memorial to fallen sailors is decorated every year on Liberation Day on 8 May and 17 May.
Designed by Nils Fiske and executed by Gautvik Steinindustri in Eide.

The sunboat "Rapp"
The sunboat "Rapp" was designed by Ole T. Flakke and built at Rena Verft and docked in Kristiansund in 1958 and the builder was the Kristiansund municipal Sundbåtvesen. The boat is today the last remaining of the classic sound boats in Kristiansund.
