Oslo, the Capital and Cultural Center of Norway

To enhance your cultural knowledge, the Norwegian capital is a perfect destination choice. Indeed, Oslo is a city renowned for its cultural treasures. The city is home to numerous monuments and museums that are essential cultural spots. During your visit to the capital of Norway, make sure to visit the Akershus Fortress that majestically overlooks the Oslo fjord. Constructed at the end of the 13th century by Håkon V, this fortress is inseparable from the country's history. It attracts tourists with its medieval architecture and the view of the port it provides from its battlements. In this fortress, you will have the opportunity to visit the Norwegian Resistance Museum. This museum tells the story of the country during the resistance and the period of German occupation from 1940 to 1945. Within this fortress, you can also learn more about Norway's military history by visiting the Defence Museum. You can discover exhibitions focusing on the country's military history from the Viking era to the 1950s. Another must-visit cultural spot in Oslo is the Bygdøy Peninsula. It hosts numerous interesting museums like the Viking Ship Museum or Vikingskiphuset. In this museum, you will have the chance to admire beautiful pieces from the 9th century such as the Oseberg ship that tends to impress visitors with its length of over 20 meters. Other Viking items like clothing, sculptures, weapons, and a horse-drawn carriage are also on display.
