Description

The Nobel Peace Center consists of an exciting combination of changing and permanent exhibitions. The Center seeks to promote popular interest in issues relating to war, peace and conflict resolution - in Norway as well as abroad.

The Peace Prize laureates are all presented on digital screens in the Nobel Field, a garden of 1000 fibre-optic lights. Don't miss the magical book about Alfred Nobel's life and work, the Electronic Wall Papers and the film room The Eye.

The children's activity "Mission: Peace! The quest for the world’s most important peace agent" is suitable for children accompanied by adults, and takes approx. 30 minutes to complete.

Scheduled events include lectures and open meetings, seminars and discussions, and a wide range of cultural and artistic activities.

On the first floor is the museum shop with exciting and original design products, and the restaurant Alfred, which offers varied, healthy and tasty food for all ages.
