Dedicated to Norwegian culture and history, this sprawling museum provides visitors with a glimpse of daily Norwegian life over the centuries. Established in 1894, the Norwegian Museum of Cultural History includes more than 150 historic buildings taken from all over the country as well as five medieval structures, including the spectacularly preserved, 13th-century Gol Stave Church, which is still used today for marriage ceremonies. With exhibits spanning centuries and all classes of society, the comprehensive museum also boasts a number of open-air museums and theaters, and can be toured with a guide in full traditional costume. Indagare Tip: Contact the Bookings Team to arrange a tour complete with a packed lunch; the museum grounds are beautiful and perfect for a picnic.
