What can tell us more about a city's soul than its history? Now you stand in front of Karmsund Folkemuseum, located in Haugesund's old dairy building. It is nothing less than a cultural treasure trove focusing on the history of the city and region. Here you will find four permanent exhibitions spanning several centuries, providing insights into the history of Haugalandet, from the Stone Age to modern times, with a rich collection of artifacts, photographs, and documents. The exhibitions showcase daily life, crafts, maritime activities, and trade, including authentic interiors and traditional tools. The museum organizes activities, lectures, and workshops, and has an extensive school program that brings local history to life for new generations.
