What is the Easter Mystery at Norsk Folkemuseum?
The "Easter Mystery" is an interactive experience at Norsk Folkemuseum in Bygdøy, Oslo.
In Norway, "Easter crime" (or påskekrim as it is called in Norwegian) is a beloved national tradition where people engage in crime stories through books, TV shows, and radio dramas during the Easter holiday.
During Easter, the museum transforms into a living crime scene, filled with clues and suspicious characters.
Guided by the evidence you collect, you’ll meet intriguing figures who may be connected to the mystery. Follow the trail, interact with characters, and piece together the puzzle - can you crack the case?
