What travelers are saying
- RYC88Centreville, VA1,265 contributionsThe sculptures are very interesting and the setting is lovely with great views of the harbor. Make sure you check the artwork map, as one of the installations is easy to miss because you think it is a concrete bunker that is part of the harbor and another is an installation hanging on the side of a building.Written July 22, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- LolaGo1Washington DC, DC6,210 contributionsThere are so many statues I noted as I walked around Oslo. This is the most imposing one, located infront of the Royal Palace. He is facing the wide avenue, perhaps named after him? I took pictures of this attraction and the areas around it.
I need to research what made him so famous and what he had done for Norway to deserve having his statue in such a location and naming a big avenue after him.Written May 11, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

A statue of Rikard Nordraak, the composer of the Norwegian national anthem, and two strange, spiky metal dragons/demons/beings. Pretty cool, if you ask me.
