Central Norway through 10,000 years

Central Norway through 10,000 years

Join us on a journey through Central Norway's prehistory. The journey starts when the first people who came to our part of the world 11 500 years ago and ends with the Vikings.

In this exhibition, you can see some of the museum's most spectacular objects. Everything from stone age jewellery to exquisite Viking swords. The objects carry the past within them and give us an insight into the lives of the people who came before us. They tell stories about everyday life and religious practice, power struggles and major societal changes.
