Hammerfest: Royal and Ancient Polar Bear Society Hammerfest: Royal and Ancient Polar Bear Society No Data

Description


The museum of the Royal and Ancient Polar Bear Society tells the history of hunting and fishing from Hammerfest, and of some of the people involved in the explorations that have set sail from the most Northerly city in the world. The museum, as its name suggests, also has exhibitions on polar bears, which is a little odd as Polar Bears have never knowingly roamed as wild animals around Hammerfest.
