Historical Museum in Oslo, designed by the architect Henrik Bull in 1903 in Art Nouveau style. The museum building, which has two round towers and flowing lines of the facade, was open to the general public access in 1904. Its exposition consists of three collections: the collection of antiquities, a collection of coins and medals, as well as an ethnographic museum.

Collection of Antiquities tells the story of Norway from the Stone Age to the Middle Ages. At the heart of the collection are the numerous archaeological finds.

On the second floor is a collection of coins, banknotes of different periods and medals. Here are exhibited 6300 Greek and Roman coins, donated to the museum by Professor Georg Sverdrup Norwegian University.

Ethnographic Museum, which occupies the third floor of the building, tells the story of Arctic expeditions, about the cultures of the peoples of the North, East, America and Africa, as well as Egyptian mummies and objects of ancient art.

All the inscriptions for the exhibits are made in three languages: Norwegian, English and German. Entrance to the museum is free. In summer, there are organized guided tours.
