Northern Norway » Nordkappmuseet

Nordkappmuseet is a small museum which exhibits Arctic fisheries and aspects of everyday life on the outer coast of the county of Finnmark, as well as the municipality of Nordkapp.

Nordkappmuseet commemorates the fishing heritage of the most fishery dependent county of Norway. Our exhibitions focus on local history, fisheries and the history of the formation and the growth of North Cape tourism. We have additional information about king crabs, whaling and seabirds.

The museum offers personal service in a friendly atmosphere. The staff speaks Norwegian, English and German. Written information is offered in Norwegian, English and German, and several texts are also available in French, Italian and Spanish.

The museum is located by the harbour in the centre of Honningsvåg, only a few minutes’ walk from the Coastal Liner and the coach station.
