I loved visiting this open-air museum! Its various wooden buildings take us back in time to understand the history of Norway and its people. I also learned a lot about Sami, which was very interesting. Definitely worth it :)

Very good display of wooden buildings and different decades of Norwegian life. The day we visited lots of black ice after recent snow not many displays during winter
But still plenty to see shame no animals in the fields. Overall enjoyed walking through the different buildings and looking into the rooms a time capsule of yesteryear.

This huge, open-air, and if I shall call it "hands-on", museum takes you in a tour through Norway's cultural history. You will be able to visit different buildings and houses, from rural to urban, designed based on real houses and stories. You'll read the stories of people, see their pictures, touch their objects and furniture, and learn how they used to live.
PS: Don't be scared of real people wearing traditional clothes and sitting like dolls in old houses!

‘Ello chaps! The Norwegian Folk Museum is one of the main attractions among Oslo’s tourists, putting on display Norway’s culture and history. You can see that history through various museum style displays, but also through a large open-air museum, with more than 150 buildings. This is one of Oslo’s more favored museums with lots to see and do. Plus, a cute coffee shop and gift shop. It’s very accessible by public bus from downtown Oslo and is also a short walk from the Viking Ship Museum. I give Norwegian Folk Museum Four Stars out of Five.

The majority of the museum is a huge open air landscape, including hillside pathways, but first of all you come across old houses and streets from the 19th & 20th century. These are interesting but very similar to other Western/Northern European cities from that time.

The really interesting parts of the museum are when you wonder around the back and discover dozens and dozens of the old wooden houses, many with green roofs, along with examples of farmland buildings. There is also a magnificent church, The Stave Church, at the top of a slight hillside walk. A beautiful old building, partly built in the Middle Ages.

You can spend a good 2/3 hours here, especially if the weather is good. It's also free entrance if you have an Oslo Pass.
