Museum of Holocaust Studies in Norway
Villa Grande, Huk Aveny 56, 0287 Oslo, Norway
About the company:
The Holocaust Museum Centre is located in Quiling's house above the Oslofjord Bay. The idea of the center belongs to General Bjorn Egge, a prisoner of the Sachsen-Hausen concentration camp.
During World War II, 735 Jews were killed in Norway. Only 50 people survived. Responsible for the Holocaust Norwegians considered Vidkun Quisling, the founder of the Norwegian Nazi Party. Quisling was shot in 1945 and the museum was housed in his home.
After the restoration of the villa in 2005, a center for Holocaust studies was opened here. The interior of the house corresponds to the style of Nazi architecture. Each visitor will be able to see the bunker, the jewelry room of Quiling’s wife and other rooms. Historians work in the house, and there are often exhibitions about the Holocaust.
