  • Worth the visit. Learned a lot about Arctic exploration here.

  • Some of the items there are a bit dated, but it's still quite informational. The section upstairs about Nansen is the highlight.

  • Ask for the brochure at the entrance. The museum is very rich, but the captions are only in Norwegian.

    Chiedi l'opuscolo all'ingresso. Il museo è molto ricco, ma le didascalie sono solo in Norvegese.
