Sightseeing

We have several great museums in our city. Arktikum museum & science center that I highly recommend, if you want to learn about the Arctic region. The Culture Pass is a handy way to experience the most interesting culture attractions in Rovaniemi! With the pass you can learn about the history of Lapland and Arctic research in Arktikum, get to know northern contemporary art in Korundi House of Culture and familiarize yourself with the many meanings of northern forests in Science Centre Pilke. The Culture Pass is personal and valid for seven days. You can buy it from any of these three attractions or online www. culturepass.fi/en.
