ABOUT THE MUSEUM
The Vigeland Museum opened in 1947 and is Gustav Vigeland's (1869-1943) former studio and residence. In our permanent exhibition you can experience several of Vigeland's important early works from the 1890's, his famous monuments and portraits, and plaster originals of the iconic sculptures in the Vigeland Park in a 1:1 scale.
Vigeland moved into the apartment with his wife, Ingerid, on the second floor of the museum in 1924. He lived here until his death in 1943. Vigeland himself designed the interior of Ingerid and Gustav Vigeland’s apartment. The lamps, pillows, fabrics and tablecloths can be considered a "total work of art" inspired by the Art & Crafts movement.
