Registration session with William -

19 April 2024

The collection group has this week travelled to Svolvær for a registration session with William at Lofoten War Memorial Museum.

William Hakvaag has over the years built up an impressive collection of objects from World War II. If you have not visited Lofoten War Memorial Museum yet, it is highly recommended.

A rich museum collection

The collection group has made good progress in mapping objects in the exhibitions of Lofoten War Memorial Museum. More than 500 objects were mapped in this round!

The collection is rich with many small details, uniforms and objects consisting of a hundred pieces.

Historic walk in Svolvær

There was also time for some historical replenishment, and not just intense mapping of artefacts. William Hakvaag took the collection group on a historical walk in the centre of Svolvær, and linked stories and pictures to places around the city.
