Lonely Planet review for Ibsen Museum
Housed in the last residence of Norwegian playwright Henrik Ibsen, the Ibsen Museum is a must-see for Ibsen fans along with his birthplace of Skien and Grimstad, where the eminent playwright spent his formative years. The study remains exactly as he left it and other rooms have been restored in the style and colours popular in Ibsen’s day. Visitors can even glance into the bedroom where he uttered his famously enigmatic last words ‘Tvert imot!’ (‘To the contrary!’), before dying on 23 May 1906.
