The Norwegian Museum of Cultural History (Norsk Folkemuseum) shows how people have been living in Norway since the 16th century. In this open air museum, you’ll find over 150 historic buildings situated in beautiful surroundings. Don’t miss the popular Gol Stave Church, built in the 1200s, it really looks spectacular and so well preserved for its age. As you walk around, you will see sod roofed farm houses from different regions of Norway, surrounded by pastures and grazing farm animals.
You can enjoy some of the indoor exhibitions of historic furniture, clothing, altarpieces, Sami handicrafts and the interior of Norway’s first parliament.

During my summer trip to Oslo, I visited the Historical Museum and it was a highlight of my stay! 🏛️ Located on Frederiks gate 2, the museum offers a deep dive into Norway's rich history and cultural heritage. The entrance fee is 120 NOK (about $12), which is quite reasonable for the extensive collection of artifacts and exhibits.
The museum features impressive displays on Viking history, ancient Egyptian artifacts, and various periods of Norwegian history. I especially enjoyed the section on the Vikings, which included detailed reconstructions and interesting insights into their daily lives. 🛡️✨ Nearby, you can stroll through the beautiful Oslo University grounds or visit the nearby National Museum for more cultural exploration.
Definitely worth a visit if you're interested in learning more about Norway's past!
