(Translated by Google) Meet up and see that it is closed due to refurbishment, but online it says that the museum is open. Hadn't been an idea and updated their web pages. You can use a computer machine, too (Original) Møter opp og ser at det er stengt pga oppussing, men på nett står det at museet er åpent. Hadde det ikke vært en idé og oppdatere nettsidene deres. Dere kan jo bruke en edb maskin dere også.😡

Such a wonderful trip inside the museum in this windy and rainy day in Bergen. We had a short trip with a group of ladies in the museum. It's really big and spacious with organize specimens and displays. Useful and easy to understand of each information given to. You will get confused where to go first cause everything is very wild, very scientific and you definitely curious to yourself and would likely to stay longer cause 1 hour wont be enough, sadly. Friendly staffs, have a really nice wardrobe for jackets and bags. Hope you enjoy visiting the museum. And better to be there early cause 1 hour trip is very short and you will get a cliffhanger feeling if you dont see it everything.And dont forget to visit there cafe so cozy and serves nice food and warm drinks.

In the University Museum of Bergen are located several exhibitions concerning prehistory and history of Western Norway (Vestlandet). Downstairs are presented nice exhibitions dedicated to the Viking Age and Stone Age. At exhibition related to Viking period is shown the history of different artefacts (e.g. jewellery, weaponry) which were robbed on 14th August 2017 and retrieved in October 2017. This fascinating exhibition presents also basic problems connected with the conservation of various archaeological finds. Stone Age exhibition presents the various finds dated to this period which were discovered in Norway. At other exhibitions in the University Museum of Bergen are presented in an interesting way medieval art (e.g. beautifully decorated portals), the art of western Norway and history of theatre. In my opinion, during the visit to the University Museum of Bergen, we can not only see nice exhibited finds but also learn a lots of interesting facts about prehistory and history of Western Norway. Totally worth visiting!

(Translated by Google) I think it is amazing that it has reopened but, silly that it closes at 16 they should have opened longer approx. to 17-18 on weekdays and on weekends 19-20. It does feel a bit recognizable though, at the same time different compared to before they closed. (Original) Jeg synes det er fantastisk at det har åpnet igjen men, dummt at det stenger kl 16 de burde ha åpent lengre ca. til 17-18 i hverdager og i helgen 19-20. Det går og kjenne seg litt igjen men, samtidig annerledes i forhold til før de stengte.

A very nice exhibition of archeology, anthropology, folklore, religious arts and many other things.

Just letting everyone know. That the museum is closed for renovations now. Not sure till when

(Translated by Google) Have not been for many years but loved it then! (Original) Har ikke vært på mange år, men elsket det da!

It is actually closed until september... No info was given about this, not even on the website or in google :(

Beautiful garden

Nice place for relaxing.

(Translated by Google) I found a discovery, leaving the maritime museum. I found many interesting things. I especially liked his section of Egypt, because although it was small, it was not as overwhelming as in other museums, very clear and interesting. Another of my sections that I liked the most is the one related to the religious art and life of St. Olav, the woodwork is impressive, it is worth visiting. Another of the sections that I did not expect to find is the danger of plastic lys in the sea, and their harmful effect on whales and the effects of plastic pollution Vanuatu's sculpture is impressive To which we must add the. Viking goldsmith's exhibition Worth a visit (Original) Un descubrimiento, saliendo del museo marítimo lo encontré. Encontré muchas cosas interesantes. Me gusto en especial su sección de egipto, porque aunque era pequeña, no era tan agobiante como en otros museos, muy claro e interesante. Otra de sus secciones que mas me gusto es la relacionada con el arte religioso y la vida de de San Olav, los trabajos en madera son impresionantes, vale la pena visitarla. Otra de las secciones que no esperaba encontrar es la del peligro de lis plásticos en el mar, y su efecto nocivo en las ballenas y los efectos de la contaminación del plástico La escultura de Vanuatu es impresionante A lo que hay que sumar la. Exposición de orfebrería vikinga Vale la pena visitarlo

(Translated by Google) Exciting museum with many good stories to tell. Very good exhibition based on their burglary in 2017! And one can borrow a nice pole for the wardrobe if you, like me, do not have Norwegian cash up here. (Original) Spændende museum med mange gode historier at fortælle. Rigtig god udstilling baseret på deres indbrud i 2017! Og man kan låne en fin polet til garderoben hvis man som jeg ikke har norske kontanter med her op.

Very much worth a visit

An extensive display of religious artefacts from the time around the Reformation. Otherwise, a few smaller displays about theater and knitting. The display about the Vikings did not give any history of the time, just told about how some of the artefacts were stolen and are still missing. I understand that this was awful and they want the artefacts returned, but it did totally take over the historic element of the display.

This review refers only to the natural science part of the exhibition, as the rest was closed for renovations. The museum is housed in a beautiful, old and well-maintained building. As a result, however, it is not handicapped accessible in any way. Bags or backpacks must be placed in lockers, but this is free and no deposit is required. There are very nice and interesting exhibits and a lot of stuffed animals. Unfortunately, that's where the enthusiasm ends. You don't have to be a biologist to realize that the exhibits are sorted and presented in a didactically disastrous way. If I didn't know the systematics, I wouldn't have been a bit smarter afterwards. The texts are arranged in a confusing way, partly difficult to assign to the exhibits, but at least in Norwegian and English. Unfortunately, it is difficult to see where Norwegian ends and English begins. The glass panes of most of the showcases are not really smooth, so that one is prevented from looking at them by optical distortions. A lot of money was spent here and proved that this is not enough. Museum pedagogically a disaster. Completely unsuitable for children. Nothing to touch, try out or experience. During the tour, one repeatedly finds photos of more or less naked women, whose meaning remains completely unclear. In addition, they tried to scientifically substantiate the woken gender mania with absurd examples. Unfortunately, one is no longer safe from ideology even in a natural history museum. Too bad.

(Translated by Google) Very much to look at. Understand that the opening is limited due to the corona, so unfortunately did not get the opportunity to go through all the exhibitions. (Original) Veldig mye å se på. Forstår at åpningen er begrenset grunnet korona, så fikk desverre ikke anledning til å gå igjennom alle utstillingene.

Museum holds a broad collection that tells the story of evolution. Good for educational purposes.

A place to go in Bergen! Nice coffee and a beautiful museum

It was... Alright. Maybe my expectations where a bit too high after the Maritime Museum next to it. The museum staff was very friendly and informative and handed me some info material. The place was also clean and easy to find. The biggest issue I had though was the lack of light in the museum. Additionally many of the exhibition pieces (rather small objects) were placed quite far behind the glass. In combination with the lack of light this it made it difficult to examine and the objects properly. If you have the bergen card this museum is free, otherwise I‘m not sure if I would want to pay for it. Nevertheless some really nice and interesting exhibition pieces from various epochs!

I was surprised to find a big collection of Russian icons 17 and 18 centuries at the museum.

This museum has probably the most fantastic exhibit on churches in Norway I've ever seen. Not to mention the other exhibits. The first floor didn't have a lot of English translations, but the exhibits were still easy to understand and absolutely fantastically put together. The rest of the museum had full translations for everything in English and Norwegian. Lastly, the staff was super helpful and friendly.

Wonderful experience, dont miss the chance to visit while in Bergen 💜

(Translated by Google) It was very nice to see how wonderful it has been both at the Natural History and History Museum. We spent a whole day in the museums and ate a good lunch in the cafe. However, there is one thing that we think can be improved. Inside the booths is information about the exhibited objects. This information is in very small font and the slope position is incorrect. This makes it very difficult to read this information. I hope this can be solved in a cheap and easy way. (Original) Det var veldig kjekt å se hvor flott det har blitt både på Naturhistorisk- og Historisk Museum. Vi brukte en hel dag i museene og spiste en god lunsj i kafeen. Det er imidlertid en ting som vi synes kan forbedres. Inne i montrene står det informasjon om de utstilte objektene. Denne informasjonen er på svært liten skrift i tillegg til at skråstillingen er feil. Dette gjør det svært vanskelig å lese denne informasjonen. Jeg håper dette kan løses på en billig og enkel måte.

(Translated by Google) Incredibly great collection in new light. Great exhibitions. (Original) Utrolig flott samling i nytt lys.Flotte utstillinger.

(Translated by Google) Very nice for adults and children. Great refurbished. (Original) Veldig kjekt for voksne og barn. Flott oppusset.
