Museo Maritimo Noruego

The Norwegian Maritime Museum (Norsk Maritimt Museum), previously known as the Norsk Sjøfartsmuseum, founded in 1914. The museum's building won an architectural award.

Its exhibits on coast culture and maritime history include boat models, fishing, marine archeology, marine paintings, ship building, and shipping. The video "Maritime Norway" by Ivo Caprino and a library are also a part of the museum experience. The Arctic ship Gjøa is on display, as are the Colin Archer, and the three-masted schooner Svanen ("Swan"). Other boats are exhibited in the harbour.
