Oslo-D2; 1 of 4 FOLK MUSEUM

Norsk Folkmuseum- We started our day with a visit to this open air museum which was very interesting as they relocated homes and building from all over Norway to demonstrate the history and times of how people lived in the16th Century. The museum includes 160 buildings from rural and urban Norway beginning in the Middle Ages up to the 20th Century. The overall collection contains around 160.000 artifacts representing daily life and work in Norway and are linked to home and domestic activities, farming, skilled labor, folk art and crafts. There are collections of folk dress, textiles, folk art, weapons, toys, musical instruments and church art.

Some of the buildings we visited were: A 13th Century Church, working farms, homes, an 8 apartment house, an apothecary, Sami residence, a blacksmith, a bakeshouse as well as an English garden, and French garden. https://norskfolkemuseum.no/en Czytaj więcej
