Disen is a neighborhood divided between the boroughs of Bjerke and Nordre Aker in Oslo, Norway.

Disen was originally a manor south of Grefsenåsen. The name stems from dís in Norse mythology.[1]

Disen farm was parceled out as a residential area from 1918, with a major surge in building construction form the 1950s.[1]
