Gamle rådhus, Heritage site in Oslo, Norway

The Gamle rådhus stands as a two-story brick building with traditional Norwegian architectural elements and large windows across its facade.

Constructed in 1641 during the reign of King Christian IV, the Gamle rådhus functioned as the first town hall of Christiania, the former name of Oslo.

The building reflects Norwegian administrative history through its multiple functions, including service as a fire station, church, Supreme Court, and city hall.

The restaurant within Gamle rådhus operates Tuesday through Friday for lunch from 11:30 AM to 3:00 PM and Monday through Saturday for dinner service.

The former arrest basement of Gamle rådhus now functions as a wine cellar with banquet facilities that accommodate groups of up to 20 people.
