Nobel Peace Center


This is not far from Rådhusplassen and Aker Brygge. It's the musem of all winners of the Nobel Peace Prize. It's the old railway station Vestbanen. Which were station for all trains to west of Norway. It's build in 1872 of Georg Andreas Bull (only in norwegian) and were closed in 1989 when the main railway station opened. Soon it'll be built new buildings behind it and it won't be teared down.
My sister is back tomorrow with new photos. Thanks for all comments!

I remember seeing this and was impressed by the ramped entrance. I went into the lobby but decided not to linger as I wanted to explore the city streets.
