Framed in The fram - A nice exposure to experience all the adventures and exploration done by some of the great explorers on the earth. The surrounding of the place is also mesmerising.

Polar expedition by Nansen and his Fram ship. - Nice story behind the polar expedition by Nansen and the Fram ship. We enjoyed the visit and can only recommend it. Suitable for kids.

Essential in Oslo - Great museum where you can not only learn in detail about the different expeditions to the poles, with videos. Photographs, and objects of all kinds, but you can also visit and tour the interior of two of the most famous ships that performed the feats.

Amazing museum - Amazing museum and so many original artefacts, really enjoyed moving through the ship understanding what life aboard might have been like, highly recommended, just check bus routes and times as somewhat remote location

Interactivity - Very interactive and allowed you to see and experience the activities of Norwegian trailblazers. Very interactive

Fantastic museum and great location - A brilliant museum - two boats to explore in the entirety and really helpful displays on English and Norwegian- easily spend 2 or 3 hours here. So glad we came.

A must do! - The place is exceptional! I loved being able to explore the Fram, the rooms are staged, numerous photos, remains and the detailed explanations throughout the visit allow us to perfectly imagine life on board! There are also little fun activities such as discovering an Igloo, rifle shooting, etc. which make this visit a great time! I loved.

A must for any visit to Oslo - The Fram Museum on Oslo's museum island is a must for any visitor to Norway's capital. The museum is dedicated to the remarkable story of the Fram, a Schooner used in expeditions of the Arctic and Antarctic regions by the Norwegian explorers Fridtjof Nansen, Otto Sverdrup, Oscar Wisting, and Roald Amundsen between 1893 and 1912. However, it is also dedicated to the history of exploration in general, celebrating the successes, but also mentioning the failures. Definitely worth a visit

Polar exploration - a museum all about history, culture and science - A very good museum learning about the polar explorations of generations past in terms of the teams, dangers, challenges and achievements gained and lost as a result. The museum is spread across a couple of small buildings each housing a sailing vessel that was used by the great explorers, one of which is fully open to roam within. The museum is divided into different sections, one being a short video room which gives an overview and introduction to polar exploration and its intrigue. The next is a summary of the different expeditions that were undertaken from different countries and teams in the name of science and technological development, with an emphasis on the Norwegians of course. The main building houses the Flam vessel a reinforced wooden ship that was built to withstand the crushing ice flows. You can explore the main deck and below deck to see and experience what life was like for the crew aided by lighting, low beams, surround sound, projections and life-like figures and dioramas in rooms. Its quite impressive and an enjoyable experience wondering round. There is a lot of information to look at, read and digest the majority of which is in Norwegian and English. Besides the explorers themselves and expeditions undertaken there is also coverage of local culture among the Canadian Inuit with clothing, weapons, and crafts wear all visible in display cases as you go round as well as also animals found in the polar regions. There are audio guides as well which are available in several languages (French, German, Spanish, Chinese, Japanese etc) including a physical guidebook. I spent about 2 hours here wondering around, and could, if reading everything on offer, have spent about 3. They also had a cafe with small explorer huts to dine in - great for privacy and also a well stocked shop with quite a good selection of items for sale.

Great Ship museum with interaction for all ages - Great morning out visiting the Fram museum. I’ve been before (back in 2022) and the interactive weather display was fully operational with the ice room. However, on this occasion the weather on the ships deck wasn’t working at one end of the ship and the ice room was closed and no longer in use. Still, an amazing ship to visit and I’d recommend a break away from the city centre to get out there to learn about the Arctic explorers.
