Fram Museum

Removed from Unnamed collection

Fram, the mightiest wooden ship ever constructed, still holds the prestigious records for reaching the most extreme northern and southern points on our planet. When you visit the Fram Museum, you can actually step aboard this legendary vessel and imagine what life was like for the crew and their trusty dogs as they braved the harshest conditions on Earth: the icy realms of the Arctic and Antarctic. The exhibition offers translations in ten languages, including English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Russian, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, and Norwegian, making it accessible to a global audience.

One of the highlights at the Fram Museum is the polar simulator. This unique experience lets you feel the bone-chilling cold and understand the perilous nature of polar expeditions from over a century ago. It's a thrilling way to connect with the adventurous spirit of explorers from the past. Don't miss the chance to explore the Gjøa building located right next to the main museum. It houses fascinating displays about the Arctic and the Northwest Passage, shedding light on the daring journeys through these icy waters.

While you're in Oslo, take the opportunity to explore the surrounding area. The museum is located on the picturesque Bygdøy Peninsula, a spot known for its other cultural attractions and beautiful natural scenery. It's the perfect place for a leisurely stroll or a picnic by the water, adding a touch of tranquility to your adventurous day at the museum.
