Norsk Folkemuseum, Norway

The Norsk Folkemuseum presents life in Norway from 1500 until today. The open-air museum has more than 150 historic buildings which have been relocated from various parts of Norway. The indoor exhibits feature Norwegian traditional culture.

Here are a few examples of rural farmsteads.



One of the most spectacular buildings is the Stave church from Gol which dates back to the 1200s.



The indoor exhibit has several (hundred!) more examples of embroidery, woodworking, and other crafts.
