• Significance: It serves as the administrative hub for the city of Oslo and is a major cultural venue. • Architecture: The building was designed by Arnstein Arneberg and Magnus Poulsson and officially opened in 1950. Its striking red brick façade and two tall towers make it instantly recognizable.
• Cultural Importance: The Rådhus is famous for hosting the annual Nobel Peace Prize ceremony in its grand main hall, which features beautiful murals depicting Norwegian history, culture, and everyday life. • Interior: Inside, you’ll find richly decorated halls with frescoes, tapestries, and paintings by some of Norway’s greatest artists, including Edvard Munch’s contemporary peers.
