| About these ratings | ||
The Munch Museum is dedicated to the art of Norway's most famous painter, Edvard Munch. One of several versions of his masterpiece, The Scream, is housed here. However, don't sleep on the rest of his impressive body of work. The museum has more than 1,100 Munch paintings, including versions of brilliant pieces like Anxiety and Madonna.
If The Scream is the only Munch painting you're really interested in, you can also find a version in the National Gallery building at the National Museum of Art, Architecture and Design.
Munch Museum is a short walk from the Tøyen T-Bane station. Admission is roughly $12 USD (75 kroner) for adults and $7 (or 40 kroner) for seniors, students and children over age 7 (those under age 7 may enter for free). Opening hours from Sept. 1 through May 31 are 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekends and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on weekdays, excluding Monday when the museum is closed. You can visit every day of the week from June 1 to Aug. 31 from 10 a.m. until 6 p.m. For more information, check out the Munch Museum's website.
