Astrup Fearnley Museum of Modern Art, Aker Brygge, shopping and restaurant area overlooking Oslo Fjord, Oslo, Norway

---

Aker Brygge is an area in Oslo, Norway. It is a popular meeting place for shopping, dining, and entertainment. As many as 12 million visitors a year make Aker Brygge Norway's biggest destination. Aker Brygge is west of Pipervika, an arm of the Oslo Fjord, on the former ship yard of Akers Mekaniske Verksted, which was shut down in 1982. Before the shipyard was established there in 1854, the area was known as Holmen. It was an old yard where some industrial corporations established, and a suburban establishment grew in the early 19th century. Aker Brygge is served by the Aker Brygge tram station.
