Museum collections

Since the end of the 1800th century, Norrbotten's museum has collected objects that tell the story of the county's history. It's a wide collection - from painted chests and cabinets to plastic plates and napkins. Norrbotten's museum also has an extensive image archive. The archive contains images from the museum's own documentation in the county, as well as from photographers and private individuals. You can see pictures and objects in our museum collection database Carlotta.

 

In the VAS (Visual Archive Search) system, you have the option of searching among your own lists on internal pages or on the internet.
