National Museum of Art, Architecture and Design

The National Museum presents over 6,500 artworks across 86 exhibition rooms in a modernist building near Aker Brygge district of Oslo.

The museum originated from Norway's first public museum established in 1837 and underwent reorganization in 2003 to combine art, architecture, and design collections.

The collection includes works by Norwegian and international artists, from medieval tapestries to contemporary installations, representing Nordic and European artistic movements.

The museum opens Tuesday and Wednesday until 8 PM, other days except Monday from 10 AM to 5 PM, with tickets at 200 NOK for adults.

The Light Hall, featuring marble glass walls, serves as an exhibition space on the roof level with views across Oslo harbor.
