This exquisite building served as a railway station called Oslo Vestbanestasjon from 1872 until it closed in 1989. All trains were rerouted to the new Oslo Sentralstasjon. After a significant renovation, it reopened as the Nobel Peace Center in 2005. The Nobels Fredssenter is a museum tracing the coveted award’s history from the posthumous trust established in 1896 by Alfred Nobel, the inventor of dynamite, to the present day. Another Nobel Museum is located in Stockholm, Sweden.
