Jugendstilsenteret

Jugendstilsenteret occupies the 1907 Swan Pharmacy building and displays authentic interiors, furniture, and decorative objects from the early 1900s. The exhibition shows how people furnished their homes and shops during that period.

After a devastating fire in 1904 destroyed Ålesund, the city underwent reconstruction and this building was created in 1907. The rebuilding effort shaped the city's modern character for decades to come.

The museum displays regional artworks and design elements that reflect how Norwegians interpreted Art Nouveau style in everyday objects and spaces.

The museum is accessible during regular hours and offers guided tours for visitors. Plan enough time to explore the different rooms and displays at a comfortable pace.

An interactive multimedia program allows visitors to see the city's architectural transformation after the fire unfold before their eyes. This experience helps put the scale of the rebuilding into perspective.
