Step inside a stunning piece of modern architecture and journey into the heart of the Arctic. Arktikum museum offers stories, science, and history of life in the far north, from the culture of the Sámi people to the fascinating science behind the Northern Lights.

It’s the perfect way to begin your Rovaniemi/ Lapland adventure, giving you a much deeper appreciation for the incredible nature and culture that surrounds you.

Perfect for a rainy or very cold day, since you can easily get lost in here for hours.

Make sure to check out the souvenir shop (one of my personal favourites in Rovaniemi) and cafe!

NOTE

• Arktikum has parking facilites.

• Explore also outside, the Arktikum garden.

• You can purchase a culture pass that combines other museums in Rovaniemi. (Pilke & Korundi)
