Vigeland Park: Human Form, Art's Soul & Local Secrets
No address available
Price From $92.85 per person
Lowest Price Guarantee
Come with me on this highly unusual tour to discover one man’s artistic obsession and a lifetime of work dedicated to the sublime study of the human body in all its glorious simplicity. This Experience is a treat for both serious art lovers and those who are curious to discover something new and unique! The bronze and granite sculptures at the park portray humans in a variety of situations from everyday to more symbolic (such as the famous “Man Attacked by Babies”) to highly abstract such as the centerpiece of the complex. As we walk through the park, I will introduce you to the most important pieces and tell you the background story of each. Yet, since focusing only on those highlights does not quite reveal the true nature of the collection, I will also guide you and draw your attention to the seemingly more casual pieces that genuinely capture the essence of the collection.

We unexpectedly had an extra day in Oslo. We decided to visit this beautiful park. Not only with walking paths, but the amazing talent of the artist that depicts the beauty of human form through these sculptures. If you have time, it is worth it.

Very much recommend this tour - been to oslo many times and whilst have been to park before never really appreciated a lot of the history and Ihor had so much knowledge and patience to explain, very much enjoyed and was a highlight of our trip.

Hour provided a comprehensive and engaging tour. Our experience of the Vigeland sculptures and the site as a whole was much more rich because of his knowledge and manner. Highly recommend!

Lovely park - not sure about sculptures. I’m not very arty but there was lots of nakedness and I didn’t get it. Nevertheless was interesting and a nice break from city sightseeing. Nice park / river to wander through

The guide was nice but the park itself has not much to see so the experience was a bit empty. You could just walk by yourself.

This sculpture park is amazing, not only with the huge amount of sculptures but also the story behind the artist and what it all means. Without the story you most likely only see a pile of nude statures so it is important that you get to understand what the intent of each of the statues is rather than just wander through

Park to visit absolutely.It was our first visit to the city.Accompanied by an Italian guide, art expert, we admired both the granite and bronze sculptures, all inserted in a remarkable naturalistic complex

Very interesting park, the Guide explained the meaning and genesis of the Park and its statues. From the top of the Park under the column you can have a panoramic view of the city.
