Troll Museum
About This Museum
People don't just come here to learn about trolls; they come to step directly into the pages of a Norwegian fairytale. Nestled in the heart of Tromsø, this quirky museum is a delightful deep dive into the mythical creatures that are so deeply woven into Scandinavian culture. You'll find yourself surrounded by towering, lifelike troll figures and intricate dioramas that feel both ancient and strangely alive. It’s an enchanting experience that charms both kids and adults with its playful storytelling and immersive atmosphere.
Collection Highlights
Don't miss the massive, shaggy-haired Forest Troll caught mid-roar, or the delicate, glowing Huldra figure who might just lure you in with her song. One of the most memorable exhibits is a full-scale scene of a troll family arguing over a pot of porridge, complete with sound effects and dramatic lighting.
Visitor Information
You'll find it in a charming old warehouse on the waterfront at Kaigata 3—it's surprisingly spacious inside! It's the perfect activity for a rainy Tromsø afternoon or as a unique cultural stop after a day of fjord gazing.
Architecture & Building
Housed in a classic, red-painted wooden building that dates back to Tromsø's heyday as a Arctic trading post, giving it an authentic, historic feel from the moment you spot it.
