Step inside the narrow stairways, discover room after room, see the cannons – and maybe you dare to go all the way down to the cellar, where something both special and a little spooky is waiting…

You’ll get the “Search and Find” booklet at the reception when you arrive.
When you are visiting Bryggens Museum, you can solve puzzles and go on a treasure hunt in the exhibition Below Ground every day. Feel free to join our drawing competition! Free activity booklet and maybe a smaill prizereward for children.
Welcome to wool workshop at Bryggens Museum!
Saturdays from 4. October until 20. December from 10:30 until 14:30
Step into the magical world of textiles! Here, kids and grown-ups can discover how wool becomes yarn, how to set up a loom, and how colors and patterns can tell a story.
In the workshop, you can try:
• Carding – brushing the wool so it’s ready for spinning • Spinning – twisting wool into yarn • Weaving – making small rugs on simple looms
You can also color your own versions of the beautiful Åsmund Frægdagjeva tapestries from the exhibition – or create your very own story with colors and patterns!
The workshop is for all ages and takes place in a calm, creative space. No experience needed – just bring your curiosity and imagination!
The exhibition is open too, where you can listen to fairy tales based on medieval ballads while admiring the stunning tapestries by Ragna Breivik.
Exhibition: Tales in Thread! The tapestry Series “Åsmund Frægdagjeva” by Ragna Breivik
For the very first time, the “Åsmund Frægdagjeva” series are displayed at Bryggens Museum – ten magnificent tapestries created by Norwegian textile artist Ragna Breivik. The tapestries were woven over a period of more than 25 years and are based on the medieval ballad of Åsmund Frægdagjeva, who rescues Princess Ermelin from trolls in Trollebotn.
Come and see the hall of the king himself! Hundreds of knights and royal dignitaries celebrated weddings and coronation ceremonies here for hundreds of years.
How high do you think the roof is? In the lower storey, we see where the king’s scribes sat writing with their quills, and the king once kept his treasure trove in the cellar!
Old Bergen Museum is large and offers a variety of experiences. A walk through the park provides peace and tranquility and is freely accessible. Sandviken Sjøbad is located right next to the museum, where you can take a dip at the Elsesro bathing area! Please note that grilling and the use of open flames are prohibited on the museum grounds.
The area can be visited all year round!
The Museum is closed for the season and will reopen in spring 2026.
