Are you looking for tickets, opening hours and other practical info? Here you will find answers to frequently asked questions.
Where can I buy tickets to the museums?
Tickets are purchased from the individual museum. We are currently working to put in place the online ticketing system. As of today, you can buy tickets online to Lofotr Viking Museum, Andøy Museum, Ballangen Museum, Hurtigruten Museum and Narvik Museum.
Is there free entry for refugees?
Museum Nord wants to show support for refugees from all countries, who have sought refuge in Norway and in our region. Refugees are offered free entry to Museum Nord’s 21 museums. We would like to help to welcome and to allow refugees to become better acquainted with our history, culture and way of life.
So-called “Residence card” or “asylum seeker card” must be used as an ID. If you are unsure whether the scheme applies to you or someone you want to take with you to visit our museums, please contact us. If this applies to groups organized by the air traffic controller, please contact us in advance.
