Gustav Vigeland Monolith on a summer July night in Oslo

Vigeland Monolith takes on an almost mystical appearance on Oslo summer nights, when the midnight sun colors the sky in golden and blue shades. The bronze sculptures surrounding the monument stand out against the dramatic sky, while the monolith granite captures the last glimmers of the Nordic evening. In July Oslo enjoys almost 19 hours of daylight, allowing visitors to admire the park in unique lighting conditions that enhance the monumentality of Vigeland works.
