    A small room upstairs that used to function as the headquarters theta-group resistance cell during the second World War. They have tried to recreate the room as much as possible. Many of the decorations and props are donated. Only one item is original. Some of the items were too new and were therefore out of place. The guide telling the story shared a lot of details on how the group started, what they did, what their influence was on events in history, and how they disbanded and ended. I learned a lot today!

    Admission in a group of 10-12 people. Motivated person telling you about the historic background of the theta group. Bonus: you can be in a typical building in Bryggen. Little drawback: not open too often, though that is compensated by the authentic presentation of the history.

    Norway's smallest museum. Very interesting war story about illegal radio broadcasts during the war. A bit difficult to find out. Must have an appointment with the museum to receive a tour and lecture. Recommended for anyone interested in Bryggen's history.

    Cool little hidden museum that holds a lot of history of Bergen and Norway. Very interesting to listen to the story from the guy working at the museum.

    Small but nice museum, which is unfortunately somewhat overlooked, perhaps because it is a bit hidden. In "Enhjørningen" in the attic, accessible via stairs from the back yard. The museum, actually just a small room, is run by a number of volunteers. The Theta was a resistance group made up of young people, mainly students, who transmitted troop movements and strengths and the position and type of Nazi ships to London from 1940-1942 during the German occupation. Very interesting and tragic story, lovingly restored and looked after by nice staff - highly recommended!

    Loved the one-on-one discussion with the docent on staff that day. We sat across a coffee table from the docent as she explained the Bergen student resistance, what they did, and how they fared.
