Wilhelm von Hanno
Wilhelm von Hanno was one of the most important and prolific architects in 19th century Norway. In recent years, the National Museum has added a number of significant items to its von Hanno collection, including architectural drawings and fascinating chronicle-like sketchbooks.
On 28 February we open a small exhibition based on these new acquisitions. Here you will see several of the remarkable sketchbooks, as well as drawings for some of von Hanno’s largest projects in Oslo, such as the Trinity Church (1850–58), Grønland church, school and fire station (1864–69) and the former headquarters of the Norwegian Mapping Authority (1876–79).
