Sporveismuseet Vognhall 5

Sporveismuseet Vognhall 5 is Oslo's public transport museum, housed in a former tram depot at Majorstuen. The depot, designed by Paul A. Due, was begun in 1913 and taken into use in September 1914 by Kristiania Elektriske Sporvei; with 2,074 square metres, 572 metres of track and room for up to 75 cars, it was the largest in Northern Europe. Majorstua was phased out as an operating depot in 1964–66, and the last regular tram was parked there on 22 May 1966. The museum is run by volunteers of the local transport history society Lokaltrafikkhistorisk forening.

The museum holds a selection of preserved trams, metro cars and buses representing the public transport history of Oslo and Akershus. Visitors can step inside many of the vehicles, and text panels explain each one. The exhibition also includes posters and videos about the history, a display of tickets and various other objects. Alongside the museum, the society runs vintage trams and buses on special trips; details are on the museum's website.

The museum is open all year on Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday from 11:00 to 15:00, and closed on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. It is also closed on 17 May, Norway's Constitution Day. With only four opening days a week and a four-hour window each day, plan the visit for the weekend or the start of the week.

Admission is NOK 80 for adults aged 18 and over and NOK 40 for children from 6, and a family ticket covering two adults and up to four children costs NOK 160. Entry is free for children under 6, kindergartens and school classes, companions and Oslo Pass holders, as well as employees of Ruter and its operators and members of the local transport history society and its Nordic sister organisations.

The museum is at Gardeveien 15 in Majorstua, central Oslo, and is easy to reach by metro, tram or bus to Majorstua; Ruter's journey planner has the routes. There are outdoor bicycle racks, and street parking for cars in the surrounding streets. The entrance is universally designed, and there is a toilet and an accessible toilet with a baby-changing table.
