The University Aula is located in the middle building (Domus media) of the old campus in central Oslo. Both the Aula and the main square are frequently used for major academic and cultural events and festivities - of local, national or international importance. A place for festive events, concerts and art, the University ceremonial hall, the Aula, is perhaps the university's most famous building.
The 11 oil paintings that cover the walls of the University Aula are the only decorations by Edvard Munch that can still be viewed in their original context. "The Sun", "Alma Mater" and "History" are the main pictures.
The Aula will host one of ISHPSSB 2019 keynote lectures.
