Open aula 2024
On selected Saturdays we open the doors to the University Aula, where you can experience Edvard Munch's world-famous Aula paintings in beautiful surroundings.
The art in the Aula
Edvard Munch completed his Aula paintings in 1916, and they have decorated the walls of the Aula ever since. "The Sun", "Alma Mater" and "History" are the most famous.
In Munch's own time the paintings were controversial, today they are considered a national treasure that many people come by to enjoy.
