"Arkivet" was the Gestapo headquarters for the southern parts of Norway during ww2. Today they have an exhibition. In addition they have courses on the war, human rights and cultural awareness for pupils and students. They have a small cafe and gift shop. The building is a short walk from the ferry terminal, so if you have an hour or two to spend, I strongly recommend a visit.

All of Norway's high school students visit a Holocaust Concentration Camp to develop an understanding of what happened during World War II. The King of Norway was a refugee twice- first leaving for England, then for the U.S. A visit to the War Relics of Kristiansand, Norway is invaluable, including the Arkivet.

Small museum telling the history of the German occupation of the city with a focus on the Gestapo. It focuses on the individual stories of the Gestapo officers and men and on the Norwegian resistance and collaborators.

Dette var en helt utrolig og spesiell opplevelse! Du BØR ABSOLUTT ha guida omvisning her (bestill på nett). Guiden var HELT FANTASTISK, utrolig innsiktsfull og en usedvanlig god fortellerevne. Vi stilte spørsmål og han svarte grundig på alt. Det var utrolig rørende og spesielt å høre på han, og opplevelsen sitter enda i meg nå, en uke etter at vi var der. Anbefales på det sterkeste!

Während der Besatzungszeit als Gestapo Quartier genutzt. Wäre sicherlich interessant gewesen, hätte unser Audioguide funktioniert. Da die Ausstellung ausschließlich in Landessprache gehalten ist, haben wir leider nichts verstanden, bis eine freundliche Dame uns die geschlossenen Zellen gezeigt und ein wenig auf Deutsch erklärt hatte. An der Stelle ein herzliches Dankeschön dafür.

Ellaborate explanation from the people working here and they depict passion in history and knowledge.
