I never expected to find a real ship inside the museum but what an awesome place. In addition to learning all about the travels of the ship, we were able to actually board the ship and walk down into the lower decks. It was a great experience and much more interesting than most other maritime museums
Inspiring story, loads of interesting facts and details. You get to walk through the ship. Not too big :)

Improvements made to the museum in 2011 are well-worth a visit! Modern, creative displays for artifacts, new dioramas, and a polar experience. Information in English and Norwegian, with interactive screens with several languages for selected displays.

The ship is in wonderful condition. We spent a couple of hours reading the stories of the Fram's expeditions which are spread out over 3 floors around the ship. Unusually, English id the first language with Norwegian second. Several other languages available via touchscreen monitors.

The museum has an amazing collection of polar items, pictures, documents from the polar history. Probaly the best equipped...

Fantastic museum in Oslo. You can see the ship Amundsen used to go to the South Pole as the first person. What a feeling it must have been to be the first on the South Pole.
You can walk all around and inside the ship. Very unique museum experience!
