Statsbygg has announced the beginning of construction of the Museum of the Viking Age public-private partnership (PPP) project on the Bygdøy peninsula southwest of Oslo, Norway.
The US$370 million project involves the construction of the Museum of the Viking Age in Oslo, Norway. Building with an area of 13,000 sq. m will complement the 95-year-old Viking Ship Museum, which previously housed ships found in burials in Oseberg, Gokstad and Thun. The museum will preserve more than 8,000 finds from the Viking Age. The project design from AART is a loop lined with the local slate that connects to the two wings of the cruciform museum ship. This design of the museum will open it to others and create an inner courtyard.
The project is scheduled to open in 2026. The museum will attract over a million visitors a year.
