Art and History Tour at Lysebu
Welcome to a very special art and history tour at Lysebu, led by our director Pernille Christensen.
Art and History Tour at Lysebu
Join us for a guided tour through Lysebu’s unique art, architecture, and history. Discover the Danish-Norwegian connection and the story of how Lysebu was given as a gift from Norway to Denmark after World War II, in gratitude for Danish aid to Norway during the war.
Experience the art collection with over 85 works from Henie Onstad Art Centre and Lysebu’s own collection.
I anledning 80-årsjubileet til Fondet for dansk-norsk samarbeid har vi, for første gang i Lysebus historie, samlet to dronninger i én felles kunstutstilling i vakre Hammerich-stuen, som nå er døpt om til Dronningstuen. 
H.M. Queen Sonja has generously lent the watercolor Fjell IV as well as three earthenware platters. H.M. Queen Margrethe has, for her part, provided four watercolors from the series Windows—works specifically selected to harmonize with Lysebu’s unique architecture and a series that marks Lysebu’s significance as a national gift during World War II.
This somewhat hidden gallery offers powerful art experiences in unique surroundings. We conclude with refreshments, where all participants will receive one of our famous Danish smørrebrød and a sweet treat from our own patisserie.
