Villa Grande is the name of a property on Bygdøy in Oslo, Norway.

The construction of the building began in 1917, designed by the architects Christian Morgenstierne (1880–1967) and Arne Eide. The original owner was Sam Eyde, founder of Norsk Hydro. He sold the incomplete building after one year. Years later, still incomplete, it was taken over by the Norwegian government. In 1941, it was finished and furnished as a residence for Maria and Vidkun Quisling. They lived there until the latter was arrested in 1945. During this period the villa was known as Gimlé.
