About Vigeland Museum

The Vigeland Museum, at Nobels gate 32, is the studio and home of Gustav Vigeland (1869–1943), regarded as one of Norway’s finest neoclassical buildings; it holds his early works, portraits and the plaster models for the park, and his apartment on the third floor, where he lived from 1924 until his death, VisitOSLO records.
