Nordland Røde Kors Krigsminnemuseum (War Museum)

Frommer's Review

Near Torghallen in the town center, this museum re-creates the tragic events of the early 1940s, revisiting the epic struggle of the Narvik campaign of 1940 and the dreaded years of Nazi occupation from 1940 to 1945. Events from Narvik's destruction by the Germans, who occupied it until the end of the World War II, are the focus here. Exhibits detail Germany's battle for Narvik's iron ore and how Nazi forces fought troops from France, Poland, and Norway, and a considerable British flotilla at sea. Experiences of the civilian population and foreign POWs are also highlighted.
