A good museum showing the history of Stavanger and it's link to the fishing and oil industries. The building is also very interesting with examples of a shop, office and home. My only request is for more information in English. I can read a basic level of Norwegian, but some of the text was very detailed - more translations would have been appreciated.

This is an interesting museum with some of the insightful events from the history of Stavanger. Also, the nicely designed boats and cruises can be interesting to look at. The downside of this museum is that they don’t have the English translations of the events. Nonetheless, the museum still remains very unique and influential to look at!
Good museum to learn about the local fisherman and the sardine and herring industry.
Good n with WiFi gratis ok n nice view on all around side...and today here again so nice
Very good museum which serves some delicious waffles at a reasonable price. Not a huge place but you can easily spend well over a hour in this place.
Staff were very helpful. It is a great nautical and local history museum. Most exhibit placards are in Norwegian, but staff provide a booklet with English translations (or use Google translate's camera feature.) Be sure to check out the building construction itself, as it is very old and impressive. The tide prediction machine is an incredibly sophisticated analog computer built in 1947 which created tide tables until retired in the 1970s. It is worth the admission price alone. Hang on to your admission receipt as it gets you free entry into the Canning museum and a variety of other locations in Stavanger on the same day. I believe admission is half off if you already visited the petroleum museum on the same day. Just show your receipt.
Some beautiful pieces but way too much writing and none of it in English. Quite a messy museum, old style with no interactions, but the recreation of the offices and living quarters were cool.
Needs an upgrade. Quite boring
