Norges Fiskerimuseum / Norway Fisheries Museum
Here you will find some of the best preserved seaside warehouses in Bergen. The stockfish warehouses are a unique cultural memorial from a time when Bergen was the centre of a stockfish trade that spanned the world. In the harbour you will also find a variety of traditional boats. The Norwegian Fisheries Museum is a museum for history of the fisheries and coastal heritage, and together with The Hanseatic Museum and Kystmuseet in Øygarden make up Museum Vest’s profile for coastal culture.
