About Jewish Museum in Oslo

The Oslo Jewish Museum (Jødisk Museum i Oslo) at Calmeyers gate 15B presents Jewish culture, tradition and history and Judaism in general through exhibitions, lectures, concerts and other cultural activities. It was officially opened by Crown Prince Haakon on 8 September 2008. The location was chosen because there had been a substantial Jewish population in the area: a synagogue stood in the same street from 1921 to 1942, and many Jews who came to Norway from the Baltic countries lived nearby.
