Lonely Planet review for Norwegian Resistance Museum
Within the Akershus fortress complex, adjacent to a memorial for resistance fighters executed on the spot during WWII, is the Norwegian Resistance Museum. The small, but worthwhile museum covers the dark years of German occupation, as well as the jubilant day of 9 May 1945 when peace was declared. Artefacts include a set of dentures that belonged to a Norwegian Prisoner of War in Poland, and were wired to receive radio broadcasts, underground newspapers, numerous maps and photographs. The museum is a must see for WWII history enthusiasts.
