Visit the new 22 July Centre in Oslo's Government Quarter to learn more about the 22 July 2011 terrorist attacks, democracy, and how we can prevent extremism.
22 July is one of the darkest chapters in Norway’s recent history. Precisely for that reason, it must not be forgotten. The 22 July Centre exists to preserve the memory of the terrorist attacks on the Government Quarter and Utøya on 22 July 2011. It also seeks to foster an understanding of what happened, how it could happen, and why this history continues to matter to us today.
22 July 2011 a bomb exploded in the Government Quarter of central Oslo and killed eight people. Later that afternoon, 69 people were killed in a mass shooting on Utøya island.
