This thesis covers considerations regarding commercially availble magnetic field sensors and the design work and assembly of a 3-axis magnetic field sensor of Hall technology that is tested for use in a cryostat at the FREIA laboratory, Uppsala university. The assembled sensor needs to withstand cryogenic temperatures and a high vacuum environment. A design for a mechanical structure that will be able to move a matrix of multiple sensors inside the cryostat is also covered. A short section discusses magnetoresistance magnetic field sensors for these purposes. The assembled sensor withstood a cryogenic test and a vacuum test separately, but it did start to show an odd behavior in a specific temperature range towards the last cycles of the cryogenic test. The printed ciruit board didn't show any damage on the board or the solder joints after operation in the vacuum environment.
