NordicLife Culture + Taste + History + Events + Personalities New Waterfront Museum Coming to Tromsø Architecture fi rm Henning Larsen has unveiled a design for the new Arctic University Museum of Norway on Tromsø's harbor. The museum will resemble a cluster of glowing beacons, achieved by the placement of four distinct buildings in the shape of a four-leaf clover. The current Arctic Museum is located on the southern tip of the island, but the move will put the museum closer to the city center with an accessible pathway leading from the museum to the main town. The new museum will contain both exhibition spaces and research facilities, with the skeleton of a blue whale suspended in the largest exhibition hall. It's expected to be one of the largest cultural institutions north of the Arctic Circle when it opens in a few years. sonsofnorway.com VIKING MARCH 2021 5 COURTESY HENNING LARSENhttp://www.sonsofnorway.com
