What To Expect
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.

5.00This is incredible good value. There is so much to read. Being able to stand on the Fram boat makes everything so much more interesting. Great place to spend 2 - 3 hours. Getting the ferry there and back was an added bonus.
Everyone enjoyed the Fram!

5.00The topic of Arctic exploration was not something any of us had ever truly contemplated. Two adults and one 16-year-old spent almost three hours reading and learning all the things. Be sure to read the timeline of the first Fram trip. We are surprised it is not a major motion picture. Also be sure to make it to the top level where you can enter and see the inside of the Fram. Don’t be fooled by the e entry as it looks like a boring museum. It is not. You do need to read quite a bit to understand the importance. We loved it!
Spectacular experience

5.00Well worth a visit. Easy to get there on the ferry. Spectacular experience. Fascinating. Well set out. And amazing being able to walk round the Fram itself. I spent 3 hours there.
An Absolute Historical Gem

5.00What an exceptionally good museum. A 20 minute ferry ride delivers you to this fantastic experience. There is a vast amount to see and learn about. The exploration of Greenland is truly fascinating when you realise just how brave the early explorers were and the life threatening dangers they faced and not always overcame. The stories of Amundsen and his clever preparations, adopting lessons learnt from the Inuit people, is really well worth reading. Don't miss the 4d experience of the crash landing plane and the subsequent work to get it flying again.
Great place to visit for a few hours

5.00We took the bus here to visit this museum. It was very cool to experience the ship. Great place to visit for a few hours however the weather was beautiful outside so we rushed it a bit. We walked over to Stave church afterwards (about 20 mins). It was a perfect day!
Excellent

5.00Very exciting to see and do the tour of the Fram and to learn more about Norway’s explorers. We especially loved taking the ferry over, then walking to the Folk Museum. Lots of walking but well worth it!
