The lack of architecture is more than made up for by fabulous museums. The Munch Museum and the Henrik Ibsen Museum are located in the city centre. The Kontiki Museum and the National Maritime Museum are on the harbourside.
The Viking Ship Museum is at Bygdoy and houses two vessels estimated to be more than 1,100 years old as well as numerous Viking relics. The Norwegian Cultural History Museum is also at Bygdoy and is an open-air complex with buildings representing different eras of the country’s history. Vigeland Sculpture Park is close to the access road for Bygdoy.
