Car Hire in Bronnoysund

Akershus is an ancient fortress and castle in Oslo loaded with a permanent exhibition of weapons. The building houses the headquarters of the Armed Forces and the Ministry of Defense of Norway. Ancient cannons and modern guns, as well as open excursions to historical prison cells tickle the fancy of large tourist companies. An exhibition of the history of the castle is open for connoisseurs of quiet meditation.
The City Hall in Oslo which was founded in 1950, will appeal to fans of monumental structures. Two powerful towers of dark brick contrast with the bright colored frescos inside the building. Enthusiasts of panoramic landscapes can climb to the roof of the building from which the entire capital of Norway is visible, as if it were in the palm of your hand.

The main and outright owner of the Kon-Tiki Museum is Tour Heyerdahl. This man dedicated his whole life to science and travel. The name of the historical center is identical to the name of the raft on which the great voyager crossed the Pacific Ocean. What is more, the museum’s collection contains many other ships on which the traveler went on expeditions.

One of the most unusual sculptures showcased is the Monument to the paperclip. Many of you may be surprised and may start looking for an answer in the search engine. And you are right doing so. In general, the “clip” carries a deep symbolic meaning. When in 1940 power was seized by the Nazis and the ban on wearing buttons with the initials of the King came into force, people switched to staples in whose outlines the initials of the ruler could be guessed. After the war, a monument was erected and the clip was permanently fixed in the history of the country as a symbol of resistance.
