This is a little museum dedicated to the Bible's history, cultural influence, and main translations. The friendly tour guides will take you through their impressive collection, which spans centuries and includes a reproduction of a Dead Sea scroll page. You also get an opportunity to try writing on papyrus and vellum.
The Nordic Bible Museum (Nobimu), located in Oslo, Norway, is the first Bible museum in the Nordic countries.

A unique collection of mini bottles. While the bottles are small, the museum exhibits 12,500 of them from a collection of 53,000, over an area of 1,500 m².
Parliament
It has free guided tours in English and Norwegian lasting about 45 minutes, which assemble outside the back door of the Parliament (on Akersgata). There is a limit of 30 people per tour, so be there at least 10 minutes prior to the start of a tour.
Domkirke
Oslo's cathedral is none too impressive, but has been refurbished. It was erected in 1697, and expanded in the 19th century using different coloured brick (still visible). After the terrorist attacks on Oslo in July 2011, the square Stortorget, in front of Oslo Cathedral, became the centre for afterthought and compassion. The square was fully covered by roses, greetings and mourning messages for weeks. Affiliated with the Church of Norway, the national Lutheran church.
Akershus Festning
A medieval castle and fortress built in 1299, located close to the city centre. There are several excellent viewpoints to the Oslofjord and surrounding areas. The stone walls create an exciting atmosphere, and you are free to roam around in tight passages and staircases. There are two museums here, both related to Norwegian military history (see museums below).
Spikersuppa
the park in the heart of Oslo, between the parliament and the National Theatre. Fountains in the summer, an ice rink in the winter, outdoor seating and a variety of statues of famous Norwegians including Henrik Ibsen, Ludvig Holberg and Bjørnstjerne Bjørnson.
The resistance museum
Describes the resistance against the Nazi German occupation of Norway during World War II.
