I've been there nearly 10 years ago. This is such an incredible museum displaying history of decorative painting from Norway. Absolutely beautiful, highly recommended!
Wonderful indoor exhibits which even our three teens enjoyed. Interesting outdoor buildings with knowledgeable tour guides. Tempting gift shop. Can't wait to visit again!
Loved the exhibit especially the hand carved wooden spoons and the hardanger.
Fascinating trip into another culture and a different era. Loved the weaving and woodworking. Helpful staff. Loved the tour of the archives!
Wonderful history of Norwegian Immigration and exhibits. #Lars Fletre
Wonderful collection that is largely the result of donations to preserve Norwegian heritage. Many activities and crafts are available. Decorah is pleasant, lots of local restaurants.
Tremendous collection, beautifully displayed. Whether you're Norwegian or simply appreciate fine textiles, make sure to stop and enjoy.
Beautiful Norwegian museum. Three floors of wonderful rosemaling and carved pieces plus more. Thankfully, they do have an elevator. A must see if you are in the area.
A delightful museum. Small enough that you can feel you've seen most of it in one trip but you won't have seen it all!.
