Where fjord and contemporary architecture meet

The area known as Tjuvholmen is a recent addition to Oslo's varied collection of boroughs. The buildings that make up the area are drawn by some 20 different architects, creating a concentrated display of current trends in architecture.



Tjuvholmen is also characterised by elaborate outdoor spaces, including a city beach and several humorous outdoor artworks.



At the point where Tjuvholmen meets the fjord you find one of Oslo's main attractions, master architect Renzo Piano’s Astrup Fearnley Museum.
