Embarcación Ra II
The Ra II is an original reed boat constructed from water plants according to Thor Heyerdahl's theories about ancient Egyptian vessels. Now on display at the Kon-Tiki Museum in Oslo, it's the very craft Heyerdahl sailed across the Atlantic from North Africa to the Caribbean. The exhibition is thoughtfully designed for children, who can follow the narrative through Safi the monkey. A fascinating insight into how the ancient Egyptians might have built and navigated their ocean-going vessels.
Easter Island Exhibition
The Easter Island Exhibition is a dedicated section within the Kon-Tiki Museum showcasing artefacts and materials from Thor Heyerdahl's expeditions to this remote territory. The centrepiece is a striking 10-metre replica of an Easter Island statue. This display offers genuine insight into Heyerdahl's groundbreaking research and the fascinating culture of Rapa Nui, making it worth a visit when exploring Oslo's maritime heritage museums.
Modelo del tiburón ballena
The whale shark model is a 10-metre scale replica on display at the Kon-Tiki Museum within an underwater exhibition. It forms part of an immersive experience zone that complements the museum's exploration of Thor Heyerdahl's ocean expeditions. This engaging display helps visitors understand the scale and wonder of the creatures encountered during his legendary voyages across the world's oceans.
