Museum Exhibitions

The cultural historical collection is extremely varied and reflects the wide diversity of the former Maniitsoq administrative district. The museum’s collection of traditional clothing and historic artifacts is well worth the visit, and you won’t want to miss seeing the interior furnishings from the town’s old church.

The museum’s permanent exhibitions also include a wonderful art collection featuring works by local artists and others with links to Maniitsoq. A large number of carved figurines and paintings make up the bulk of the displayed artwork. There are several paintings and works of art by Gitz-Johansen in the collection.
