Sør-Troms Museum in Harstad is a cultural institution that offers a diverse selection of exhibitions and attractions covering several historical periods. The museum has 18 attractions that give visitors insight into the Viking Age, the Middle Ages, the 19th century, as well as events from World War II. There is also an emphasis on industrial history and the post-war period, which provides a broad perspective on the region's development.
In addition to the permanent exhibitions, Sør-Troms Museum organizes various activities such as "Knowledge for the Evening", where themes from history are highlighted. The museum also presents Outsider Art, which provides a platform for artists outside the established art community. Visitors have the opportunity to experience cultural history through interactive exhibitions, and a new chandelier in the stave church has recently been unveiled, which is part of the experience.
