Fram Museum
The main exhibition in the Fram building has explanatory texts in ten languages and describes the three great Fram expeditions. In June 2013 we inaugurated our new Gjøa building, which is connected to the Fram with an underground tunnel. The centerpiece here is Gjøa, the first ship to navigate the whole of the Northwest Passage. There are brand new historical exhibitions on the expeditions of Gjøa and Maud, of the airplanes N24 and N25 as well as of the airship Norge, John Franklin's legendary expedition and those of Henry Larsen and Eivind Astrup. We also present current issues facing the High North such as polar bears, ice melting, gas and oil etc. There is a 116 seats cinema showing a polar introduction movie every fifteen minutes.

Very interesting and immersive experience. We loved it to move around the ship, see the rooms and the objects of the crew and how was their routine in there. The history of the explorers, outside of the boat, was also worth it.

Very nice exhibit and very informative displays throughout. I spent about 2 hours just reading and going through the museum’s displays and going aboard the ship itself. Very well laid out. I arrived just as the museum opened which is nice to get through the exhibits and get photos which I prefer. Time well spent if ever in Oslo.

Really interesting. We learned a lot. Such a great perk that the original boat is set inside the museum and that we are able to visit. The gift shop had also a selection of great reading material to purchase.
