The Nobel Peace Center was opened by King Harald on 11 June 2005 and consists of an exciting combination of changing and permanent exhibitions. The Peace Prize laureates are all presented in the Nobel Field comprised of 96 digital display screens set in a garden of 1000 fibre-optic lights. Don't miss the magical book about Alfred Nobel, his life and work, the Electronic Wall Papers and the film room The Eye.
The Peace Center combines exhibitions and film presentations with digital communication and interactive installations, and also serves as an arena for a variety of events. Scheduled events include lectures and open meetings, seminars and discussions, and a wide range of cultural and artistic activities.
The Center seeks to promote popular interest in issues relating to war, peace and conflict resolution - in Norway as well as abroad - and will employ powerful tools to tell stories and highlight topics. In keeping with the spirit of Alfred Nobel's last will and testament, its mission is to shed light on small as well as large-scale conflicts.
Other facilities include Café de la Paix and a gift shop.
Free admission with the Oslo Pass.
