Oslo - Norwegian Folk Museum Norsk Folkemuseum

The Norwegian Folk Museum (Norsk Folkemuseum) consists of a number of different buildings. The main building contains collections of everyday objects, silver, carpets, furniture, etc., together with a Lapp Exhibition (costumes, tents and equipment for reindeer herding, hunting and fishing). In the same building is Ibsen's study from his house in Oslo.

Must-see attractions nearby:
Visitors can take an interesting walk through the Old Town (Gamle Byen) with its medieval houses; Pharmacy Museum (mortars and herbaria of 1857).

There is also a large open-air museum, with old wooden buildings, arranged according to the part of Norway from which they come. Of particular interest are the stave church (ca. 1200) from Gol in the Hallingdal, brought here in 1885, and the Raulandstue (ca. 1300) from the Numedal.
