Nynorsk kultursentrum | The Norwegian Museum of Written Culture

The Norwegian Museum of Written Culture consists of the Aasen Language Museum, the Hauge Poetry Museum and the Vinje Museum, each with associated festivals. Its mission is to preserve and promote Norwegian Nynorsk written culture, both in Norway and internationally. The organization fulfils this mission through events, festivals, exhibitions, book tours, lectures and collaboration with other organizations connected to the Nynorsk movement. The museums are in parts of southern Norway where Nynorsk is strongest, but the organization arranges exhibitions, tours and events across Norway and abroad. It is also a founding member and leading partner of the International Network of Language Museums, with a long tradition of international cooperation. Key authors represented include Ivar Aasen, Olav H. Hauge, Aasmund Olavsson Vinje, Aslaug Vaa, Haldis Moren Vesaas and Tarjei Vesaas.
