Holmenkollen Ski Museum
The Holmenkollen Ski Museum (Norwegian: Skimuseet I Holmenkollen) is located in Oslo, Norway, at the base of the Holmenkollen ski jump. The Ski Museum, which was established in 1923, is the world's oldest ski museum. Hjalmar Welhaven, an architect, founded the museum. His personal collection served as the foundation for the museum's antique and vintage skis. The collection was held at a building in the Oslo suburb of Frognerseteren until 1951. The museum collection was relocated to new premises in Holmenkollbakken in 1951 as part of the redevelopment of Holmenkollbakken.
The museum exhibits 4,000 years of skiing history, beginning with Stone Age rock sculptures. It also features Viking-era skiers with skis. It also showcases equipment from both Fridtjof Nansen and Roald Amundsen's arctic missions. Skiforeningen owns and operates the Ski Museum. This organization is in charge of organizing sports, activities, and events in Holmenkollen National Park.
