Audio guide Oslo Cathedral in English

In this audio guide, Emily Thompson takes you through Oslo Cathedral telling the story as you walk. In your accent, no need to read signs — just let your eyes take in what's in front of you.

What you'll hear inside Oslo Cathedral:

  • 1
    Baroque Altarpiece

    Oslo Cathedral's baroque altarpiece is amongst the most authentic and noteworthy features inside the church, valued as a significant heritage piece alongside the pulpit and baptismal font.

  • 2
    Eastern Chapel

    The Eastern Chapel is a 1950s addition to Oslo Cathedral, immediately recognisable as a later construction with its own distinct design programme.

  • 3
    Sacristy

    The sacristy at Oslo Cathedral is regarded as the most authentic part of the cathedral complex, alongside the baroque altarpiece, pulpit and baptismal font.

  • 4
    Main Organ (Jan Ryde, 1997)

    Oslo Cathedral's main organ was built by Jan Ryde in 1997 to mark the 300th anniversary of the cathedral's consecration.

  • 5
    Choir Stained Glass (Emanuel Vigeland)

    The choir stained glass windows rank among the cathedral's finest artworks, created by Emanuel Vigeland.

  • 6
    Bronze Doors of the Western Portal (Dagfin Werenskiold)

    The bronze doors at Oslo Cathedral's western entrance are the work of Norwegian artist Dagfin Werenskiold, cast in 1938 as a gift from Oslo Sparebank.

  • 7
    Ceiling Decorations (Hugo Louis Mohr)

    The ceiling paintings in Oslo Cathedral form a unified scheme across the vaults of all four naves, centred on a large sun in the transept inscribed with 'Gloria in excelsis Deo'.

  • 8
    Crypt/Exhibition Hall

    The crypt beneath Oslo Cathedral no longer serves its original burial purpose.
