The Ole Bull Museum Lysøen is a museum on the island of Lysøya in Bjørnafjorden Municipality in Vestland county, Norway. The entire island is owned by the Society for the Preservation of Ancient Norwegian Monuments and operated as a museum that is open to the public. It is part of the KODE culture and music museum network. The museum (and island) is only accessible by a ferry from the village of Søvik located less than 1 kilometre (0.62 mi) to the east. The main attraction at the museum is Villa Lysøen (Ole Bulls villa på Lysøen), the home of Norwegian violin-virtuoso and composer Ole Bull until his death in 1880. The museum closed for extensive renovations and restoration work in 2025.
