Romsdal Museum

The Romsdal Museum includes more than 40 historical buildings ranging from the 16th to 20th centuries, displaying traditional Norwegian architecture and construction methods.

Founded in 1912 by Peter Tønder Solemdal, the museum opened to the public in 1928 and represents life in the Romsdal region through different time periods.

The museum collection contains artifacts from the Mesolithic period through World War II, demonstrating the evolution of regional customs and daily practices.

The modern main building, Krona, contains artisan workshops, exhibitions, a café, a gift shop, and a library that remain accessible throughout the year.

A reconstructed street shows the appearance of Molde before the 1916 fire, complete with period-accurate buildings and historical documentation.
