    A special place for sculptures.

    Embedded in a very fine garden location you will find this special museum. Sculptures and models for the big garden sculptures are here. Also Rodin sculptures. The museum is quite old, but to reach the right impression for the park, this is the place.

    Visited the park first and thoroughly enjoyed it, so thought we would complete the experience by visiting the museum. There was little information in English, no guides in English and we were unable to find some of the things mentioned on line. The staff were...More

    Must see sculpture park within Oslo

    Walk through the sculpture park

    It’s very intriguing to walk through this park. I would think it’s one of the biggest attractions in Oslo, yet it’s nice too see that there aren’t beggars or people trying to sell cheap souvenirs (like selfie-sticks) as you would find in Brussels or Paris....More

    Disappointing

    While the exhibits are no doubt very valuable, I expected more Norwegian history and not items from Africa and America. It is not large and at the time of visit, a few rooms were undergoing renovation.

    Free entry to the Park but not the museum, of course.

    What an astonishing collection. Unique in every way. This guy Gustav was a genius. How on earth did he produce such an army of over 200 life size stone bodies? It beggars belief. Do allow yourself plenty of time to make a visit. You will...More

    Good Sunday visit

    Went with my girlfriend and I think we payed about 120NOK per adult. Plenty of nice sculptures to see. Plan about 1 hour for average interest.

    Awesome display of art and sculpture

    Masterpiece display of architecture. Very good place to visit in summer. I was recommended this place by a friend of mine. I was really astonished by the view of this park. It must be one of the best man made sculptures in-the world.
