Fram Museum

Where the Fram has gone to retire.

Located in the popular museum hotspot that is the Bygdøy Peninsula in Oslo, Norway, lies the Fram Museum. At the Fram Museum, you will get to learn all about the Fram, a strong wooden polar ship that has seen the most extreme cold weather in the world, after making a journey to the Arctic and Antarctic. In fact, the ship possesses the record of sailing the farthest in both the north and the south. Explore the ship for yourself and see how the crew lived on their expeditions, as you take a peek at their cabins, lounges and other areas first hand. For a truly immersive experience, step in the polar simulator, and immerse yourself in the conditions and that the sailors went through. However, the Fram is not the only ship you can see here. The Gjøa, which is the first ship to successfully sail through the Northwest Passage, is also displayed in this museum for your viewing pleasure. Enjoy the wonderful history of these amazing ships by visiting the Fram Museum. Who knows, this might stoke a passion for the sea in you.

Tips Before You Go
If you intend to visit the Norwegian Maritime Museum, the Kon-Tiki, or both, buy the combination ticket for these museums, including the Fram Museum, as you will get a discounted rate. Don’t forget to take your time as you walk along the various decks of the Fram itself, because it is a very rare opportunity that a museum would actually let you touch a historical artifact, let alone walk on it.
