Culture mix

Right next to Sisimiut, is Sallinnguit, also called the Tele Island. Inuits lived here for the past 4.000 years during the winters. Today, you can find artefacts bearing witness to this ancient habitation. The modern telecommunications installations gave the island its Danish name, Tele Ø.
