Museum

The national memorial and learning centre for the bombing of the government quarter and the Utøya massacre on 22 July 2011, which killed 77 people. It reopened on 22 July 2026 in the rebuilt government quarter, at the bomb site itself, with objects never shown before, such as Prime Minister Stoltenberg's handwritten notes from that day.

Good to know

  • Entry is always free, but book a ticket online: it has been busy since the reopening.
  • The permanent national memorial is at the entrance pavilion on Akersgata.
  • This is a heavy visit; allow time afterwards (Trefoldighetskirken and St. Olav are just up the street).
