Norwegian Fjord Centre
About This Museum
People come to the Norwegian Fjord Centre not just to understand the fjords, but to feel a connection to them. It’s a place where you can almost hear the creak of ancient glaciers and the stories of the farmers who carved a life from this dramatic landscape. Kids are always captivated by the interactive exhibits, like the one that lets you 'create' your own waterfall, while adults linger over the stunning panoramic films. You leave with a profound sense of awe for this UNESCO World Heritage site, realizing it's so much more than just pretty scenery.
Collection Highlights
Don't miss the powerful film that sweeps you across the fjords from sky to sea, or the detailed models showing how generations have farmed these near-vertical slopes. The exhibit on the abandoned farms is particularly moving, telling a silent story of resilience.
Visitor Information
It's wonderfully family-friendly, with plenty to keep little hands and minds busy. After exploring, their cafe is a perfect spot for a coffee and waffle with a view, and the gift shop has some genuinely lovely, non-tacky souvenirs.
Architecture & Building
The building itself is a modern, low-slung structure of wood and glass that seems to grow right out of the hillside, beautifully mirroring its natural surroundings.
