Edvard Munchs house

The white wooden house features original furnishings and personal belongings of Edvard Munch, providing direct connections to the artist's daily life and creative process.

Munch acquired this residence in 1898 and spent his summers there until 1905, creating numerous significant works including variations of The Girls on the Bridge.

The preserved interior spaces and reconstructed studio demonstrate the environment where Munch developed his distinctive artistic style and created many of his masterworks.

The museum opens seasonally with guided tours available in multiple languages, and children under six years old receive free admission while adult tickets cost 120 Norwegian Krone.

This property represents the only remaining intact residence connected to Edvard Munch, receiving protected status from Norway's Directorate for Cultural Heritage in 2013.
