Norwegian Museum of Science and Technology in Moss

A superb attraction to kids of most ages. Would recommend arriving early to allow time for the kids to run around interacting with all the various installations.

I really liked the museum. Everythings very interactive and thought provoking with a focus on renewable energy sources. Some of the exhibitions explain how the human body works and how the brain processes the information.Theres a lot of basic technical stuff (how a plane works, whats electricity, propagation of sound in vacuumgeared more towards children, so the little ones will be happy.Would especially recommend visiting the exhibition devoted to music reproduction (Robots of Music or something like that - its on the first floor): there are audio examples of how exactly this or that historical thingamajig sounded like. Fans of techmoan will appreciate it.The restaurant is fine. Cheeseburgers and salads are satisfactory. Great choice of pastry and sweets.

Had an amazing guided tour. Really fun place!

Very cool and interactive!

Not a bad place to spend few hours with children. Educational and informational on many science and medicine topics. Cool collection of old cars too.

Great collection, would be better if there was an english tour guide or just some english signes at the items. Very good visit.

Very busy, More orientated towards children. - not many translations to English. A lot of random items.

Very interesting voyage back in time

Great place for toddlers, kids an adults! Lots of interactive stations for hands on understanding. Watch out: it’s educational!

awesome. Activity for Kids and a lot. Recommanded

I dont even know where to begin! This amazing place has it all! We were expecting a fly-by visit to tick it off our Oslo museum list and ended up staying for several hours.If you have young kids and want to take the family on an incredible day out, this is a must-do. I barely took any pictures, it was that much fun.The museum takes you on an evolutionary journey through various technologies, including sound, vision, medical, transportation etc. Not only can kids learn so much about how our technology has evolved through time, there is so much for them to enjoy and interact with. Its educational, and fun.They even have actual planes and a train on the top floor of the museum! Even I turned into a kid seeing various gaming consoles I played with displayed there.This place boasts a canteen, gift shop, several restrooms, and lockers to store your coats and bags. Each section is as exciting as the next one. Its a facinating journey that everyone should experience, no matter how young or old you are.If youre visiting Oslo, set a day aside to explore this one! You wont regret it!

Very family friendly, lots of interactive exhibits. Some of the information and statistics might need updating, some exhibits needed maintenance.

Excellent experience, creative and interesting museum. When you come inside, forgot to leave. Must see if you travel to Oslo.

An exciting and interesting mix of history, culture, and technology. Thoroughly enjoyable, informative and energetic. Well worth the visit!

Quite good. Exhibits are nicely placed.Tickets are costly in my opinion especially for tourists like me since lot of the exhibits didnt have descriptions in English, which was bit of a disappointment.

This gem of a museum deserves your (and your family’sfull attention. A history of human progress, persistence, risk-taking and reward.Individuals pushing the boundaries of what is commonly thought possible this advancing the human race and reaping every dime of their well-deserved rewards.

Pretty fun place with the kids. They liked it a lot. Couldve been bigger, and a big minus for the prices.

Absolutely fantastic museum. This is a MUST if you are visiting. There is plenty in English, though some things aren’t translated. The first floor has a LOT of hands on exhibits. There is something for every age. The building is a lot bigger than it looks from the outside, so make sure you plan for plenty of time. Use the Oslo pass to get in for “free” and take the 54 bus or the 12 tram to get you there. I cannot express enough how great this museum is.

A great place to spend a Sunday with the family! Lots of things to see and do!

Needs more english signs. Quite few interactive exhibits were broken. I expected more interaction and less museum, but things are what they are. Overall quite interesting and worth visiting.

Diverse. Interactive. Informative. Definitely worth visiting if youre into music, transportation, medicine, energy, how things work, and science in general.

Nice place to visit. Kids will enjoy a lot.

Good place for kids. Spacious. Clean. Updated and relevant.Needs to have more weekday things for kids to take part in. Would also help if all exhibits have translations

Pretty large museum. Spanning for an old mummy to oil and gas sector to electricity and power to musical instruments to medical services to cars of modern Norway. Takes around 4 hours to see it all patiently. So make sure you have enough time in the day, better to come with friends who are interested in history and stuff and not ones who just look and move on. Theres a cafeteria as usual.

Fantastico!! We had a blast. With a son and a daughter (10 and 13). Alot to learn and do/look at. Alot of corona restrictions, but we had fun!

One of the best technical museums I have visited in Europe. Just beside Kjelsås Station and can reach there by bus 54 or 25. Museum has 3 floors and every floor has a unique display of its own. Children above 6 years can enjoy the place most and adults likewise. Every floor has clean bathrooms and a feeding room on 1st floor for nursing babies. Entire museum plus the premise is wheelchair friendly with huge lifts on every floor. Gift shop and restaurant is on 1st floor with outdoor seating. Another attraction is a small stream and dam beside the museum to relax on a sunny day. Enjoy!Tip- Plan atleast 3 hours to visit entire museum and it closes at 1800 every weekday.

There was a great section for the kids to play and experiment. But no where else. They need to put this all around the museum.Alot of things were closed because of covid.

Great place to visit. Many interactive activities for children. Canteen could be better, so its better to take food with you.

Worth visiting,if you are in Oslo.Its amazing to see a huge passenger aircraft parked on 1st floor of the museum. It was fun to be there. Minimum 3 hours are required to see everything.Its a Great place to visit with kids. Fun to play some experimental games.There is a full fledged restaurant/cafe in museum and food is really nice.

Much bigger than anticipated !And covered a range of topics and exhibits, everything from Paper pressing to Oil/gas to medicineHad a great time

Very interesting place to visit. Your kids can learn a lot 😊

Nice summation of the history of the various fields of the technical world built by man. The exhibition has interactive parts as well that can be nostalgic to the older generations and something weird for the youngsters.

One of the best science museums Ive ever visited! Goes through Norway’s effect on the world of science from beginning to current day with a very cool practical section! The only recommendation is more English signs for the none Norwegian speakers

The Norwegian Museum of Science and Technology in Oslo, is an educational institution with collections, exhibitions, publications and other activities. The museum’s objective is to demonstrate the implications of progress in science, technology, industry and medicine, socially and culturally, through the ages. Through its collections and exhibits the museum chronicles the development of Norway from an agrarian society to a complex industrial society. The museum contains permanent exhibitions on transport and aviation, Norwegian industrial history, energy and electricity, music machines, the oil, gas and plastics, wood and metal industries, clocks and watches, calculating machines and computers, as well as a science centre. The most recent addition to the museum is the National Museum of Medicine.

Good place to see old tech on different areas,aroplanes mortor cars bikes and computer tech history were great, recommend for kids. And geeky andults.

A great way to spend a day with kids -- the entire floor of interactive science experiences are quite engaging, and theres plenty to see in transport, energy, space etc.

A lovely museum with much to see. We walked up the river valley to the museum. It was great to see the real remnants of the industrial revolution and the creation of Oslo nee Kristiania. These were clearly shown in the industrial exhibition at the museum. Theres also much to do and see for adults and children.

My advice - go to this museum as soon as it opens because you will need as much time as you can spend there, because it is huge and VERY interesting. Not only expositions, but also interactive games and experiments, which will extend your knowledge starting from engineering, history, medicine to transportation and space. Kids were so happy there, parents a bit exhausted though :)

A huge museum – from vintage medical equipment and interactive exhibits for kids to airplanes and locomotives. Even though some descriptions are in Norwegian only, there are enough items to leave anyone satisfied.

This museum is very comprehensive. Id recommend at least 4-5 hours if youre planning to see all the exhibitions in detail.Unfortunately, some parts of a couple exhibitions were not working or under renovation. To be picky, its also a dark museum with somewhat weird lightingsetups, sometimes it can be hard to read the plaques, but your cellphone-flashlight should help.All in all a great place to bring your kids or spend some time if its raining in Oslo 👌🏼

You need a good amount of time to see this museum. It has 4 storeys, each floor having different types of exhibits. Theres play area for kids too.

Super cool place to visit! We tried to find something interesting to do while we were staying in Oslo and all the locals seemed to suggest it so we went and we were not disappointed! They have tons of exhibits and you can honestly spend an entire day there! Highly recommend it!

One of the best museum in Oslo. Very good experience for kids and for adults too. Many interactive games and experiments to learn science, technology, space and old tele communication systems. Its big museum so consider you will spent 3-4hours. Toy shop and food court is on the main entrance floor.

One of the best museum to visit in Oslo. It’s fun and exciting learning experience for the children. If you visit more often it’s good to have yearly pass. From biology to aeronautical engineering lot of real exhibits worth visiting.

Excellent museum with a lot of technologies to see that retrace the evolution of technologies from the industrial time to the computer and internet era. I also enjoyed a lot the interactive exhibits! The only negative point according to me is the lack of textual information in English!!!

Excellent museum - and very fun! 😃-Kids will love it!Ive been here severaltimes.Once there was aflooding/extreme weaterinformation/scienceexhibition. You had to put on tall rubber boots in order to wade through the flooded galleries! 🏊 Awesome!And just recently there was a LEGO build-off.(Also interesting...even for me). 😄In any case it is a really interesting place to see. The minus is that its up in the hills, nowhere near the center of Oslo.Top tip:Youll be best off taking the Kjelsås underground/tram 🚇 to Kjelsås station...then youre there!

Lower level is super fun for kids I think elder then 3. Upper lever is definitely more for adults. Music machine and anthropology exhibit. Amazing! Cudos

Kids love it here. Great exhibition with old planes and about our body. Too big for one visit. Buy subscription membership and go several times! Also do lectures, science shows and temporary exhibits.

Nice museum with so many things to see, I visited during Oslo day where you can visit for free, could not cover everything here as we got lost in some sections spending to much time playing games, worth a visit if you are into museums.

Lots of interesting things to see, recommend a full day, or a second visit. Half a floor full of hands-on scientific experiments and displays/games, suitable for children, but also fun for adults.
