Government Building sights in Northern Norway

1. Sami Parliament

   • Karasjok, Norway
   • Sights › Government building

   The Sami Parliament was established in 1989. In 2000 it moved into a glorious new building, encased in mellow Siberian wood, with a birch, pine and oak interior. The main assembly hall is shaped like a Sami tent, and the Sami library, lit with tiny lights like stars, houses over 35,000 volumes, plus other media. From late June to mid-August, there are 30-minute tours leaving hourly between 8.30am and 2.30pm (except 11.30am), Monday to Friday. The rest of the year, tours are at 1.30pm on weekdays.
