How it works
Your immersive walking tour and museum experience begins at Rørvik’s waterfront, where you’ll meet your guide.
The town’s history stretches back to the end of the last Ice Age, when some of the area's earliest settlements were established. During this journey through time, you'll explore the Stone Age, Bronze Age, Iron Age, Viking Age, Middle Ages, and modern era. Each period has its own unique character, but all are connected by a rich maritime heritage.
Your first stop is the Norveg Coastal Museum, an architecturally striking building whose wave-inspired design echoes the famous Sydney Opera House. Inside, a modern aquaculture exhibition tells the story of Norwegian salmon farming, from its origins to its future innovations. You'll also hear the dramatic story of St. Svitun, a Hurtigruten vessel wrecked on Folla, the exposed stretch of sea just outside Rørvik.
Next, you'll visit Berggården, where a preserved shop from 1888 and historic living quarters from 1878 offer a fascinating glimpse into daily life in centuries past.
The tour concludes at Telemuseet, where you'll discover the history of telecommunications and learn about the vital role Rørvik Coast Radio Station played in the local community.
