Telefonkiosk in Bergen is a museum that honors the red telephone booths, which are considered an important cultural monument in Norway. There are 100 protected kiosks in the country, and they have stood almost unchanged for 85 years. These kiosks have become part of the Norwegian cultural heritage and represent memories of a bygone era. The last telephone booth with a dial tone was removed in 2016, marking the end of an era for this form of communication.

The kiosks have also found their place in modern culture, with great popularity on social media, where they have received almost 4,500 hits on Instagram. Telenor Kulturarv encourages creative ideas for reusing the kiosks, which can help preserve their significance in society. The design of the telephone booths is considered an icon in Norwegian culture, and they continue to arouse interest and nostalgia among visitors.
