Museen in Tromsøya

Tromsø Museums & Galleries

Tromsø’s museums offer a deep dive into Arctic life, from the heroic age of polar exploration at the Polar Museum to the scientific studies of the Northern Lights at the Tromsø University Museum. The collection includes contemporary regional art at the Nordnorsk Kunstmuseum and the distinctive architecture of Polaria, which houses an Arctic aquarium. History enthusiasts can explore the M/S Polstjerna, a preserved sealing vessel, or visit the Tromsø War Museum to see a restored German naval battery and WWII military equipment.
