Great museum with free entry if you have the Oslo city pass. There is a bus stop right outside so it's easy to access. There is a cafe and gift shop area at the entrance the museum has a very large outdoor area where you can easily spend 2-3 hours exploring the different streets and old houses. There are buildings you can go into with historical artefacts. Further into the outdoor area there is a farm with staff in traditional clothes. Great half day activity for families or just people who like to explore.

Had a pleasant time walking around and visiting the buildings that had moved there from all over Norway and over various time periods. Most impressive was the beautiful stave church. We also enjoyed several of the exhibits and our three year old loved playing on the playground and with the Lego and train set that were available in one of the museum buildings. Would recommend to those who want to experience Norway but not have to travel too far!

Fascinating outdoor museum. You really need a guide to appreciate all the historic details of the structures here. When we visited, it was raining, but still manageable as long as you are careful going up and down the grades.

I really enjoyed this place, but I can't give it 4.5 stars. The museum is well-organized, and I particularly liked the farm surrounding it. I highly recommend visiting this museum if you have spare time on a weekend morning with your family. On the negative side, I didn't like some members of the staff who were supposed to interact with the visitors but seemed distracted and engaged in conversations in one or two areas. On the positive side, most of the staff I interacted with were very friendly and provided explanations about Norwegian culture, which was exactly what I was looking for. Another strong point is that everything is well-maintained, despite a few items. I will leave some photos to entice you to visit.

FANTASTIC museum so full of history and fun! There's so much to look at, and the employees do a great job at explaining everything and helping you through your tour. We saw traditional dancing, ate some bread, and saw so many amazing buildings. It was fascinating to see how people used to live. The stave church was definitely a highlight. Everything is outdoors, and you can go into each of the buildings. It's the perfect thing to do on a nice day with your family! This is covered with the Oslo Pass!
