The museum's main tour

Discover the rich and complex history of the Bible with The Museum's Main Tour at the Nordic Bible Museum, located in the heart of Oslo. This unique museum features founder Rune Arnhoff’s extensive collection of over 4,500 Bibles from Norway, the Nordic region, and beyond.

Among the collection’s rare treasures are a 1541 edition of Gustav Vasa’s Bible, a page from the Gutenberg Bible, a 1487 Latin Bible, and handwritten manuscripts dating back to 1250. The tour provides fact-based information, answering six key questions about the Bible: who wrote it, its contents, where and why it was written, the opposition it has faced, and its influence on language, culture, values, and society.

Visitors are guided through an educational journey that highlights the Bible’s enduring impact on history, society, and law, giving deeper context to its significance. Ideal for anyone interested in history, culture, or religion, this tour offers a unique look at the Bible's legacy, preserving cultural-historical treasures and making them accessible to all.

Varighet: 1 time og 15 minutter.
Vennligst møt ved museets inngang 10 minutter før omvisningen starter.
