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.

A very good museum, plenty to read and lots to see. All information in English. Only thing I would say a little confusing knowing where to start and to get your coats you have to go out and back in again
Excellent Museum

Excellent museum, which provides so much history about polar expeditions.From the very first expeditions right through the years of all the 1900s, from so many different explorers.The depth of history in the museum tells the story of all the failed and successful expeditions, what they were doing, why they did it, and how clever they were for their time, and all about the equipment that they used,all the testing that was carried out over years and the tough times endured and all the harsh winters. There is even a piece on the dogs themselves, which were vital. You can also walk on board the ship, which is excellent, as normally you are not allowed to walk on displays.There is two parts to the museum, with the Fram ship being central. I would recommend giving about three to four hours in this museum minimum. There's so much to read and it's very informative. We both enjoyed it very much. There's also a small cafe where you can get tea, coffee, muffin, sandwich, just things small, some chocolate. But I would be careful as it looked like it did close earlier than the museum closed, so you might get caught out.There is a bus stop right outside the museum so it is well connected. Definitely worth a visit when in Oslo.We were very impressed.

The history is displayed along with the display of polar expedition ships. It seems that ideas that lead to shipbuilding technology, which is now commonplace, were also born. You can enter the museum with an Oslo Pass.
Incredible

Take bus 30 to the end ($4 from downtown) and $20 to get in. The place is pretty amazing. You could easily spend a whole day in here. We flew through in about 90 min. The actual ship from the 1800s expeditions to the north and south poles. Incredible history.
A mecca for polar explorer nerds!

As my last trip to Oslo was self funded and more for tourism than business as previously, I got to do a lot more looking around and exploring. A friend recommended the 'Oslo Pass' and for 3 days and about 60 quid, I got free entry to loads of museums etc, the Fram being one of them. This also included using the little seasonal ferry boat that goes from Radhuset to Bygdones, That alone saved me about £10, so you can see now how the Oslo pass is well worth the money. The boat drops you right in front of the Fram and once inside, you've confronted with what is essentially a bloody great sailing ship from the famous Norwegian explorations of both polar regions, including the famous race to the South Pole between Amundsen and Scott. The layout is different levels of walkway running around the interior describing the ship's history and achievements as well as most of the people involved in the expeditions. Thankfully, most of this is in English as well as Norwegian, so not difficult for me to follow. Despite being fairly late in the season, the place was very busy and I elected to do nothing more than a cursory look on deck of the ship as below was packed. But other than that, the place handled the crowds well. I probably wouldn't want to come at the very height of summer however. This is well worth a visit on it's own, but coupled with the other attractions here and nearby, I'd highly recommend this all as a day trip. Certainly if you've got an Oslo pass at this little circuit alone will make that a sound investment. Needless to say, if you're an exploration geek, or well into the whole ScottAmundsen thing, this is a must do. Also, the gift shop is excellent. One of the best I've seen.
Worth it!

All the reviews about this place is true. It’s a really good museum, everything is original (apart from the wax works😂) you are able to explore the ship which is awesome. So much information on each floor. 100% worth the visit.

Unique museum where the Fram and the Gøja are exhibited. It is very lovingly statlet and holds many interesting exhibits. The video installation on the deck of the Fram makes you feel like you are at sea with the Fram. Definitely worth a visit!

A museum, literally, built around a ship- "The Fram". The museum is multiple levels that wrap around the ship and tell the stories of its' expeditions and the explorers that crewed her.
A fantastic experience in Polar exploration.

The Fram Museum is simple to get to from the centre of Oslo. The 30 bus literally stops outside it. The entrance fee was approx. £13.70 per person and is excellent value for money for what you get. There are free lockers on entry to store coats, bags etc. You get a free map of the museum layout. A good place to start is the introduction film for a 5 minute crash course in polar history on the ground floor before proceeding around the hull of the Fram ship to learn about the expeditions it and others made in the race to the South Pole and the likes. On the third floor there are more interesting facts and the opportunity to board the ship and go through it to see what the living conditions were like. Watch the raging storms around the ship and sit on the rocking bench on the boat. Once finished go via the tunnel on the ground floor to see the new Gjøa building. The centerpiece here is Gjøa, the first ship to navigate the whole of the Northwest Passage. There is also a replica of the N25 plane and the 4d polar flight simulator! It is fun for sure. We didn't have any refreshments but they are certainly there available from a small cafe. The whole experience took up at least 3 hours of our day and was well worth it.
