I visited there briefly with a friend who did volunteer work as a museum guide, and I must say that the museum itself was really nice! I don't have much experience with other museums, but it was a lot of interresting artifacts and items on display, as well as everything that is written being both in...

At first, a big disappointment ... the museum is located in the building of the City Library. We get the impression that we are about to see a small exhibition concentrated in one room. Narvik is an important city for us Poles in Norway, referring to the heroic struggle of Polish soldiers in its def...

Not a huge meseum but one with a high information density and sustained interest.

I enjoyed multi-media war map with visuals and narration to explain in great detail the twists and turns of the battle of Narvik.

I also thought the exhibits were thought-provoking. I gained a much better underst...

Excellent displays and a very helpful film detailing the WW2 battles. A member of staff kindly put the film on especially for the two of us between the normal scheduling and this was much appreciated in the limited time we had available. Very nice cafe as well.

A little content. Had it not been for the cozy female guide, it would have been raped. Everything is significantly worse than the old museum, where there was both atmosphere and a lot to see. A star for the wizard. Save your money, buy ice cream and coffee and watch the city

Yes, I think the old museum, despite being a bit old run down, was better. There were more items on display and the captions were better. The new museum is too dark. The big dis[play of the naval battle with the moving lights is not very clear or understandable. The section in the basement on war in...

Well done museum, which deals primarily with the battle of Narvik, but also covers a few general WW2 topics in Norway. It is written out in Norwegian and English. It is possible to have the texts output in German via an app, which I did not try. The lower part of the museum deals more with contempor...

The top floor has interesting information and displays about Narviks role in the war. As you head down, the focus changes and the focus moves to the cause and effects of conflict. I found it very thought provoking and something I had not come across before. It offers no answers, but demands that we ...

Very nice museum.

Very nice museum.
The descriptions of the objects are in Norwegian and English but it is possible to download a mobile application to have them in other languages.
The last part of the museum is original but is equally interesting and requires some reflection.

1.5 hours is enough to visit all the exhibitions. Interesting and modern museum with a message. Descriptions and guides of the museum are in many languages (including Polish). The museum also honored Poles fighting for Narvik with a separate exhibition dedicated to ORP Grom.
