When I'm on holiday in Norway, I'm not necessarily drawn to museums, but here in Å the museum is the historic town centre and you get access to the old houses around the harbour. The exhibitions are not highly professional, but very lovingly and authentically designed. Cod liver oil is not only talked about, you can also try it. Just like painting with the typical Norwegian red wall paint, which is also based on fish oil. The bakery has deliciously fresh cinnamon rolls and sometimes there's even a fire in the forge. With a picnic on the tables by the harbour and a view of the nesting seagulls, the museum fits in wonderfully with my holiday in Norway.

A boathouse, post office, old shop, bakery, fisherman's house, fish oil factory and a blacksmith's shop, many objects, information boards and a few short documentary videos show the history of Norwegian fishing.
Tickets cost NOK 120 (=€10) for an adult. Definitely worth it. But even without access to those buildings, a walk through Å is a pleasure for the eyes. So many great photo opportunities.
