To be exact: there is no Arktikum museum as such. The building is called Arktikum, which hosts one museum (Museum of Lapland) and one science center (The Arctic Centre). On top of this a lot more too.
A GREAT museum, definitely worth a detour. We spent half a day there and enjoyed every exhibit. The museum focuses on Arctic life in general, though some exhibits are focused on Finland.
Beautiful architecture. Interesting things about sámi's and Rovaniemi's history. Outdated way of presenting and illustrating information. Changing exhibitions aren't anything special
I was a bit disappointed with it after reading some reviews - it was a nice way to spend a few hours, but it isn't anything really special, especially the Arctic part leaves a lot to be desired.
Хороший и интересный музей, тут представлено много всего, не все интересно, но чем больше углубляешься тем интереснее, обязательно посмотрите фильм о Рованиеми с природой и сияниями и фильм о звездах!
