Slottsfjellsmuseet, Museum and civic building in Tønsberg, Norway.

The Slottsfjellsmuseet stands on Slottsfjellet hill, featuring exhibitions about local archaeology, art, and regional history spanning multiple floors.

The museum presents artifacts from Viking Age burial sites and documents the development of Tønsberg as one of Norway's first established towns.

The Whale Hall contains the largest preserved blue whale skeleton, while the Viking Hall displays Norway's fourth Viking ship found outside Oslo.

The museum opens Tuesday through Sunday from 11 AM to 4 PM, with extended hours until 7 PM on Thursdays, offering guided tours and educational programs.

A World War II bunker next to the museum served as both a bomb shelter and ammunition storage during the German occupation from 1940 to 1945.
