Folkets Hus i Oslo, Heritage site and office building at Youngstorget, Oslo, Norway

This multi-story building with its distinctive modernist architecture stands at the intersection of Youngs gate and Møllergata in central Oslo.

The current structure, completed in 1962, replaced the original 1907 neo-Renaissance building that served as a meeting place for labor unions.

The building functions as the headquarters for the Norwegian Confederation of Trade Unions and maintains spaces for administrative operations and gatherings.

The Oslo Congress Center within the building provides conference facilities, meeting rooms, and event spaces for both public and private functions.

During renovations in 1990, workers discovered a concealed Cold War-era surveillance system installed within the building's structure.
