Our guided tours
We have four different guided tours.
The Munch Room is a part of the guided tours City Hall - classic tour, City Hall – built upon ideas and art, and City Hall during the war, Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday.
1. City Hall - classic tour
The City Hall’s diverse artistic expressions provide interesting insights into the history of Oslo and Norway. Architects Arnstein Arneberg and Magnus Poulsson and Norwegian artists such as Edvard Munch and Per Krogh have made their mark on the building.
We demonstrate how art and architecture are linked with the building and the surrounding history.
2. City Hall - built upon ideas and art
The architecture and decoration of City Hall are rooted in international traditions and ideas, and it was important for the architects behind the City Hall to present both history and modernity.
This tour provides an insight into the key ideas behind the design of the City Hall, and how decorations and materials are intertwined.
3. City Hall during the War
Work on City Hall was initially stopped during the occupation, but the architects nevertheless managed to complete the building and artistic decoration a couple of years before liberation.
We relate how this important period characterised City Hall, and see how life during the war is presented in parts of the decorations.
4. Carillon tour with carillonist
The tour visits the City Hall’s eastern tower with the Nordic region’s largest carillon.
