The museum tells the history of the region in a clean, non-spectacular way. Some additional exhibitions like submaine history and the war in Ukraine are included. I think young children might find it boring but adults who like to read are perfectly right here. Entry is free.

It's free to go in. Very nice staff, free coffee and water. The museum is quite big and has a lot off stuff to see. Definitely recommend going there.

El museo es gratuito y está bastante bien. Narra de forma cronológica la historia militar de Noruega. Cronológicamente empieza desde el piso superior. Existen revistas en español y algunos paneles están en inglés también. Visita obligada. Hay reproducciones de submarinos, buques de guerra, armas,, mapas curiosos... Muy recomendable.
