The collection / Permanent exhibition

The Vigeland Museum has an almost complete collection of Gustav Vigeland's art. In our permanent exhibition you can experience several of the iconic plaster originals for the sculptures in the park, his earliest works and many of his famous monuments and portrait busts.

In the museum you can follow the development in Vigeland's ouevre, and get a unique insight into the place where Vigeland lived and worked for the last 20 years of his life.
