Theta Museum

A one-room museum in the old Bryggen Hanseatic quarter in the heart of Bergen, Norway. Its main exhibit is the room itself that houses the museum – for this reason it is also known under the epithet "Theta Room" (rather than "museum"). It was the secret HQ of a local branch of the Norwegian Resistance during the German occupation in WWII. It was in fact so well hidden that it was only discovered by accident by the Germans, who promptly destroyed it, in 1942. The present room is therefore only a reconstruction.
