At Aker Brygge stands the Nordic region’s largest art museum, home to over 6,500 works of Norwegian and international art. Here, you can stroll through rooms filled with ancient Egyptian statues, marvel at iconic Edvard Munch paintings like The Scream and Madonna, and explore ever-changing exhibitions — which have included everything from Kim Kardashian’s dress to modern furniture design. The architecture is both modernist and inviting, with high ceilings, glass walls, muted tones and spaces designed to inspire reflection. When the weather’s nice, don’t miss the rooftop terrace with great views of Akershus Fortress and the Oslofjord.
