Oslo City Hall wasn't open most of this week due to local elections but we finally got inside on…read moreour last day. City Hall was an imposing building of brick. The long driveway up included covered walkways with mounted wooden carvings depicting scenes from Nordic mythology. Each scene included a bilingual explanation which was helpful to learn the context. Well worth the time to see these. Inside only the first floor was opened for visitors on the day of our visit. It was cavernous with much higher ceilings than I expected. The wall murals were spectacular. A small display on one of the offshoot halls contained some details about the annual Nobel Peace Prize ceremony. Downstairs were the WCs and cafeteria. At least free to entry versus some other Scandinavian city halls!
