Timeline
11:00
Start at the Labour Museum. The grounds open at 11:00, giving you the quietest time to explore the well-kept workers' dwellings, winding streets, and old factory buildings along the Akerselva river.
11:45
Walk seven minutes to Noahs Ark for lunch. It is a cosy place serving excellent Turkish dishes, burgers, and pizza. It opens at 10:00, so you will have plenty of time to eat before it gets busy.
12:15
Take a short nine-minute walk south to Birkelunden. This cool park in the uppermost part of Grünerløkka is named for its birch trees. It is a peaceful green space just a short distance from the industrial site.
