About the event
One of the museum’s mediators will welcome you and share insights and perspectives that can add an extra dimension to your experience of the exhibition.
The "ládjogahpir" is an upright headdress that was traditionally worn by Sámi women until it was banned and nearly vanished at the end of the 19th century due to Norwegian assimilation policy and missionary work. Christian ministers claimed that the devil resided in the headdress’ “horn.”
Meeting point is at the reception, and the introduction lasts approximately 10–15 minutes.
The presentation will be held in English and is included in the admission ticket.
Welcome!
