Hello, Small museum, some interesting items on displays, covers the stone and bronze ages. I have spent around 1-1.5h to look at the exhibits without any hurry and read the descriptions. The items are usual for the timelines: flint and bronse daggers, arrowheads, some utensils etc. Still allows to envisage the life of people in that region. A ticket costs 100NOK to enter, well, British Musem is free and much larger, but who I am to complain!? :) There is a cafe and gift shop onsite. Having said all above, I would recommend this museum fror adults. Thanks, Rustam

Lovely bit of history of the Vikings. I could have spent hours and hours in this place just taking every single bit in of what they have of the vikings. It is filled with allsorts of items and skeletons. They have colllected a whole lot, this place is worth coming to visit if ever in the area. There is also a lovely cafe situated in the building if you need to take a break before taken on the reminder of the museum. To make it even more worth while there is a gift shop as your on the way out to take some valuable gifts home to remember this amazing visit.

Had a trip booked for months with P&O, with plans to go last Monday, only to be notified the very night before that the museum was closed due to building work. (Bit strange how nobody knew that last week!). Very disappointing to say the trip to the archeology museum was meant to be one of the highlights of our cruise, as well as looking forward to it for months!

Interesting little museum that's worth visiting if you're in Stavanger. Most of the displays have English as well and there are exhitions about Vikings and their way of life. I particularly liked the exhibition that compared origin myths from different indigenous cultures around the world. Nice little cafe and giftshop are also attached.

Very nice museum, with a lot of interesting history. Also, big bonus, a video of a beautiful woman dancing naked projected on to the wall and floor. We couldn’t figure out how she fit in, but regardless, a welcome addition! She was stunning. I watched the video three times. Didn’t learn much from it, but definitely enjoyed it.

Highly recommended for kids, they can obtain quiz to solve inside the museum, giant chess kids can play in the meantime parents take a pleasant coffee, interactive TVs and some viking dresses you can wear and record in the photocall. Thanks for the excellent attendance of the staff!
