The Norwegian Maritime Museum is located on the waterfront at Bygdøynes on the Bygdøy peninsula. Visitors can enjoy fascinating environmental exhibitions about fishing, ship building, shipping, marine archeology and impressive collections of boat models and marine paintings.

The arctic vessel Gjøa and other old boats are on display by the harbour. Norway's oldest boat, Stokkebåten, is also exhibited at the museum. The museum's supervideograph, a panorama film about the Norwegian coast, is normally screened every half hour.

The museum also has a collection of Norwegian maritime paintings, a library and a museum shop. The café is open Tuesday-Friday 11.00-14.30 and Saturday-Sunday 11.00-15.30.
