Step into the Paradox Museum in Oslo and prepare to see the world differently. As you navigate through rooms designed to play with gravity, perspective and scale, you'll encounter illusions like the “Reversed Room” where everything appears upside down, or the “Paradox Sofa” where bodies appear fragmented.
The museum’s location at Rosenkrantz gate 11—just a 2‑minute walk from the Norwegian Parliament and close to National Theatre—makes it easily accessible. You’ll find exhibits arranged for visitors to pose, photograph and explore at their own pace, typically in around 1 hour.
Whether you’re visiting with family, friends or solo, the experience offers a light‑hearted yet thought‑provoking break from traditional museums. Expect to play, smile, and question what you see—while capturing some memorable photos along the way.
Museet er vanligvis åpent mandag-tirsdag kl. 11.00-19.00, torsdag-fredag kl. 11.00-19.00, lørdag-søndag kl. 10.00-18.00; stengt på onsdager. Forhåndsbestilling anbefales for å unngå kø og sikre deg en garantert tid.
Åpningstidene kan variere i feriesesongen. Sjekk bookingkalenderen for nøyaktige tider.
