| On August 27, 2018, Norwegian Queen Sonja opened her childhood house at Maihaugen open-air museum. King Harald, Crown Prince Haakon, Crown Princess Mette-Marit and Princess Märtha Louise of Norway attended the opening ceremony. Funkisvillaen was transferred to Maihaugen open-air museum in Vinderen in Oslo in the autumn of 2016. Professionals at the museum renovated the house in compliance with the architecture of the years between 1935 and 1968 when the Queen and her family lived in that house. The house is an example of 1930s architecture and the Queen lived in that house until 1968. Queen Sonja's childhood house will be open to the public from August 30 to the middle of October at visiting hours of the museum. |
