About The Queen Sonja Art Stable

The Queen Sonja Art Stable (Dronning Sonja KunstStall) is a museum, art gallery and concert hall in the former stables of the Royal Palace in Oslo, close to the Palace Park. The stable building was completed in 1849, at the same time as the palace, and originally housed 38 horses. Between 1905 and 1911 it was expanded into an equestrian facility with a riding hall, smithy and veterinary area, led by the architect Hjalmar Welhaven and modelled on the Royal Mews in London at Queen Maud's initiative. King Harald had it renovated as a gift for Queen Sonja's 80th birthday in 2017, with Statsbygg, Riksantikvaren and Snøhetta.
