Edvard Munch's Grave

Oslo

The final resting place of Norwegian Expressionist Edvard Munch at the historic Vår Frelsers gravlund cemetery in Oslo.

The grave of Edvard Munch is located at Vår Frelsers gravlund, one of Oslo's oldest and most significant cemeteries. Munch, who died in Oslo in 1944, is considered one of the most influential painters of the modern era — his work shaped Expressionism and left a lasting mark on the art history of the twentieth century. His output encompasses over 1,700 paintings as well as countless prints and drawings, including the iconic work "The Scream". His grave is a simple, dignified resting place visited by art lovers and Munch admirers from around the world. The cemetery itself is a green oasis in the heart of the city and is also the final resting place of other significant figures in Norwegian history.
