Discover Norway's postal history  – Unique exhibitions and historic vehicles at Maihaugen

At The Norwegian Postal Museum in Maihaugen, you can immerse yourself in the rich history of Norway’s postal service, one of the country's oldest companies. The exhibition "Post Underway" offers insights into the development of postal services in Norway. During the summer, you can explore Posten's historic vehicles in the courtyard, including a rare 1200 cc Harley Davidson with a sidecar from 1932, used for emptying mailboxes in Oslo in the early 1930s.

The museum consists of a restored main building, outhouse, and carriage shed. Originally constructed by timber merchant Andreas Halmrast in Lillehammer’s Storgaten 82 in the 1860s, the building was dismantled in 1974 and re-erected at Maihaugen in 2004 to preserve Norway’s postal history.
