It later moved to new localities, in Stortingsgata 16. Its premiere performance, the operetta The Land of Smiles by Franz Lehár, was held on 7 June the same year. The theatre closed in September 1944 because the resources needed to be channeled elsewhere in the German war machine.

The 1943 University of Oslo fire (Norwegian: aula-brannen) was a fire in the ceremony hall (Universitetets Aula) of the University of Oslo in 1943. Its direct consequences were the closing of the university, and the arrest of 1,166 people; these were chiefly male students. Of these, 644 were sent to German "readjustment" camps, where 17 people died. Initial beliefs that the fire was either a Reichstag fire or perpetrated by communists were wrong; members of the Norwegian resistance movement were responsible.

Studioteatret was a theatre in Norway. It opened in 1945, shortly after the liberation, with Claes Gill as its first theatre director. Studioteatret is regarded as one of the earliest post-war artistic expressions in Norway, and most of its members later played important roles in Norwegian theatre. Studioteatret closed 25 October 1950, due to economic difficulties, and its members were spread to various other theatres.

The Carl Johan Theater (Norwegian: Carl Johan Teatret) was a theater in Oslo, Norway. It was initially located in the Christiania Tivoli amusement park in Oslo from 1893 to 1895, where it was led by Olaf Mørch Hansson. It staged performance of works such as Henrik Ibsen's Ghosts, Gabriel Finne's Før afskeden (Before the Farewell), and Gunnar Heiberg's Balkonen (The Balcony). Kalle Løchen was among the first actors it engaged.In 1914 it became a silent film theater, one of three theaters in Oslo's Karl Johan neighborhood. It was located in the rear of the property at Karl Johans gate 39 and showed silent films until it was closed on June 1, 1931. It opened newly renovated in red, gold, and black as a theater stage on October 6, 1931, first led by Anton Heiberg, Thorleif Reiss, and Leif Enger. After renovation in the summer of 1933, Per Aabel and Thorleif Reiss took over as directors and led it through a period of staging comedies until 1938, when Aabel appeared in a guest performance at the Central Theater and then moved on to the National Theater. Nanna Stenersen made her debut at the theater in 1933, Ragnhild Michelsen performed there from 1935 to 1940 as well as Teddy Nordgren, and in 1936 Wenche Foss appeared at the theater and had her breakthrough in 1937 as the "champagne girl" (Norwegian: Champagnepiken), until she married in 1939 and announced her transfer to the Central Theater. Thora Neels-Hansson made her debut at the theater in 1938 and left in 1940. During the summers, the theater was rented out for summer revues. After Thorleif Reiss moved on to the Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation in 1939, the theater briefly closed. The theater reopened on September 3, 1939 with Eigil Beck and AS Comedia as the new owner, new management, and a production of Anita Loos's The Whole Town's Talking with Hauk Aabel. Actors during this period included Frank Robert (1939, debut – 1941), Stig Egede-Nissen (1940–1942), Arne Bang-Hansen (1941–1945), Axel Thue (1942), Alice Mürer Siem (1942, debut), Espen Skjønberg, and Jack Fjeldstad (1942–1944). The music for the performances was often written by Carsten Carlsen, the husband of Lalla Carlsen, who played at the theater from 1940 to 1943. During the Second World War, the theater was led by Ellen Isefiær, who initially wanted to manage a stage with a more literary orientation and moved away from farces. In May 1944, the theater donated a day's salary and income to the suffering in Bergen.A cabaret with the Danish actress and singer Lulu Ziegler was the highlight of the opening of newly renovated premises (often referred to as Paletten 'The Palette') on September 14, 1945, with Fridtjof Mjøen as the artistic director. Calle Moseby was also involved in the theater's management after the war, but the city's theaters frequently moved during this time, and the Carl Johan Theater was part of the Studio Theater from 1946 to 1950. Leo Lenz's comedy Trio (Norwegian title: To og to er tre 'Two and Two Are Three') was its first production, with music by Kristian Hauger and Leif Enger. After the Studio Theater closed in 1950, the Carl Johan Theater was an annex theater for the Oslo New Theater until 1952. After a renovation costing NOK 200,000, the theater reopened on September 25, 1952 with a screening of Jens Bjerre's 1951 documentary film Himalaya – Verdens tag (The Himalayas: The Roof of the World). It was now operated by the company Oslo Kinematografer headed by Kristoffer Aamot, who used the theater for showing films. Norway's first screening of a 3D film (with polaroid filters) took place here on January 18, 1953, with cartoons by Norman McLaren, British landscape films, and some ballet. The theater ceased operating in April 1982, when it was decided that the building would be demolished.As a standalone theater it was closed in 1946.

The Faculty of Law (Norwegian: Det juridiske fakultet) of the University of Oslo is Norway's oldest law faculty, established in 1811 as one of the four original faculties of The Royal Frederick University (renamed the University of Oslo in 1939). Alongside the law faculties in Copenhagen, Lund and Uppsala, it is one of Scandinavia's leading institutions of legal education and research. The faculty is the highest-ranked institution of legal education in Norway and is responsible for the professional law degree, one of the most competitive programmes at any Norwegian university. Prior to 1811, the University of Copenhagen was the only university of Denmark-Norway, and the curriculum of the new law faculty in Christiania (renamed Oslo in 1925) was based on that of the University of Copenhagen Faculty of Law and long retained strong similarities, even after the dissolution of the Dano-Norwegian union in 1814. As the only faculty of law in Norway until 1980, it traditionally educated all lawyers of Norway and remains the country's most important law faculty, educating around 75% of all new legal candidates in Norway. Its law programme is one of the most competitive programmes to get into at any Norwegian university, with an acceptance rate of 12%. The faculty offers education and conducts research in both law and in related areas such as criminology and sociology of law, and historically also in economics (its former Dean, Ragnar Frisch, was awarded the first Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences). The faculty occupies the old university campus in the centre of Oslo, near the National Theatre, the Royal Palace, and the Parliament, constructed 1841–1851 by Christian Heinrich Grosch with the assistance of world-famous Prussian architect Karl Friedrich Schinkel in Schinkel's neoclassical style, with strong similarities to Schinkel's famous museums on the Museum Island in Berlin. The old campus includes three main buildings, called Domus Academica, Domus Media and Domus Bibliotheca, centered on the University Square and facing Karl Johans gate. It is complemented by the new building Domus Juridica in the opposite direction, located between the Old National Gallery and the Museum of Cultural History, facing the old campus. The Nobel Peace Prize was awarded in the atrium of the central building of the old campus, Domus Media, 1947–1989 and in 2020. The Parliament of Norway convened in the Old Ceremonial Hall in Domus Academica 1854–1866. The faculty publishes several academic journals, including the English-language journal Oslo Law Review.
