Nanortalik Museum

Nanortalik Museum, known in Greenlandic as Nanortalik Katersugaasiviat, is an outdoor museum in the town of Nanortalik in southern Greenland. The largest outdoor museum in Greenland, it presents its collections through nine historic buildings gathered into a single complex, with additional artifacts displayed outside. Because the site preserves a group of historical structures rather than relying on one exhibition hall, the built environment itself forms part of what visitors experience. Kristine Raahauge was among those connected with the institution and served as its director until 1993. It remains one of Nanortalik’s key cultural institutions, preserving local history alongside Greenland’s architectural and everyday heritage.
