What is Kulturnaustet?
Directly translated, ‘kulturnaustet’ means ‘cultural boathouse’. Kulturnaustet aims to bring people closer to maritime culture. It is intended to be an inclusive meeting place for cultural experiences, as well as a space where locals and visitors can engage with traditional crafts and coastal heritage.
Kulturnaustet has a visitor centre with exhibitions, historic films, museum shop, and café with panoramic views of fjord and Folgefonn glacier. We have several activities for children, families and larger groups.
