Florø Sights

Sights in Florø

  1. Sogn Og Fjordane Coastal Museum

    The two main buildings of the Kystmuseet are chock-full of fishing exhibits and there’s a model 1900 fishing family’s home too. Also within the complex are several old warehouse buildings, moved from Florø and Måløy, and an old herring salt house. On a more contemporary theme, the Snorreankeret oil platform display illustrates the history, exploration and exploitation of the North Sea oil and gas fields.

  2. Kinn

    Kinn has a beautifully restored 12th-century church, believed to have been built by British Celts sheltering from religious persecution. On the second or third weekend in June, it's the site of the Kinnespelet pageant, which celebrates the history of the church on the island. Climbers and hikers will savour the dramatic landscapes, particularly the Kinnaklova cleft.
