Strong stories about life of workers in Oslo and around the river Akerselva.Beautiful photos with interesting information text(not to long text).Welcomed by friendly and charming women working in museum ,good friendly service, she answered questions that popped up during visit.Area around museum is beautiful with old buildings and stone roads and close is the river Akerselva.In museum I looked at box and when I opened it it was a sound of a coughing man,very funny for me,not for him.Another box made a factory whistle sound when it was opened,probably a sound that made some workers feel bad.I was also told working life stories by an earth globe and an violet chair ! Big map of Akerselva with old factorys marked out with info was very good.The symbol of Sagene Arbeidersamfunn was powerfull and impressive with tools in middle.Akerselva was source of power to many factorys its only a short walk from museum I strongly recommend to check it out,you wont regret.
Best:Friendly good service and big map of factorys around Akerselva.
Worst:Orange candys on table was glued to each other and impossible to eat,needs to bee replaced.
