King Oscar II's Collection
Starting in 1881, King Oscar II's of Norway and Sweden had five old buildings moved to the public park at Bygdo Royal Manor. The collection, reckoned to be the world's first open-air museum, was a result of cooperation between the King's Chamberlain, Christian Holst, and the Society for the Preservation of Ancient Monuments. It was meant to represent characteristic older Norwegian buildings, and at the same time demonstrate the King's interest in Norway.
An 18th century farmhouse from Hove farm in Telemark was erected in 1881. Much of the interior was included, and the house was later more lavishly furnished to showcase life and work of the farmer.
The Stave Church (181) was built at Gol in Hallingdal in the 13th century, and re-erected here in 1884. Only one third of the materials were thought to be medieval, and these were moved to Bygdøy. The rest of the church was reconstructed, modelled after Borgund stave church in Sogn.
The storehouse from Berdal farm in Telemark (183) was bought by the King in 1885 and used to exhibit objects from the royal collection Windows were added in in the roof to provide light for the displays.
The 14th century storehouse from Rolstad in Gudbrandsdalen (184) was re-erected here in 1887. It represents a medieval log construction technique.
The summer dairy cabin fro Støylsemne (185) in Setesdal is thought to date from the 15th century, It was built on the site of the open-hearth farmhouse from Kjelleberg (1), which arrived here in 1887 and was moved to the museum's Setesdal farmstead in 1913.
The portal (186) stems from the Norwegian Industrial and Art Fair in 1883.
Oscar II's Collection was incorporated into Norsk Folkmuseum in 1907.
