Norway's only «living» shipbuilding museum – founded in 1856 and situated in the heart of the city of Kristiansund.
Mellemværftet, a section of the regional museum of Nordmøre, is a working museum where the curator wears overalls, a wood working and iron forging museum. It is at one and the same time a living museum from the age of working sail in the 19th century, a working center for the preservation and use of traditional vessels and, finally, a center for maritime culture of all kinds. In commercial operation from 1850 to 1978, the shipyard has been part of regional museum since 1984.
The museum's outdoor area is open and freely accessible all year round, but may be closed when vessels are being launched and launched.
