Emanuel Vigeland Museum, Mausoleum museum in Slemdal, Oslo, Norway
The Emanuel Vigeland Museum features a dark, barrel-vaulted room with frescoes covering 800 square meters of walls and ceiling depicting human life cycles.
Emanuel Vigeland constructed the building in 1926 as a gallery for his artwork, later transforming it into a mausoleum by sealing all windows.
The central fresco, titled VITA, presents intense scenes of human existence from conception through death through detailed artistic expressions.
Visitors need advance reservations for Sunday openings between 11:30 AM and 4:00 PM, with adult tickets priced at 90 Norwegian Krone.
The museum contains an urn with Emanuel Vigeland's ashes positioned above the entrance door, requiring visitors to bow when entering and exiting.
