There’s a lot to discover at the Skogar Museum: The Folk Museum displays agricultural and fishery tools, boats and maritime gear, textiles and costumes, musical instruments, rare books and manuscripts, and natural history exhibits. The Open Air Museum includes a traditional turf farmstead, a 19th-century gabled farm home, a home built from driftwood, a multidenominational church assembled from 16 regional churches, and a miniature turf home for elves. The Museum of Transport and Communication houses a collection of automobiles, trucks, highway machinery, and telecommunication, radio, and rescue team equipment used over the last century.
