Dive into Sámi culture at the Sámi Museum Siida

We tell the story of the Sámi — past, present, and future.

At the Sámi Museum Siida, we offer an insightful and immersive journey into the culture of the Sámi, the only recognized Indigenous people of the European Union. Our exhibitions showcase the richness of Sámi tradition, art, and spirituality — through historical objects, detailed handicrafts, and stories rooted in life in the Arctic north.

But we don’t only look to the past. We also highlight contemporary Sámi life and the evolving nature of our culture. Through current themes, modern art, and living narratives, we reflect the vitality and resilience of Sámi communities today and into the future.
We are located in the heart of a landscape that has shaped Sámi life for centuries. Although our exhibitions are indoors, they open windows to the surrounding nature and its deep significance in Sámi culture.

We invite you to explore the life and heritage of the Sámi people. Siida is a place where the past, present, and future come together — and where the Sámi tell their own story.
