Opened in 2011, the center combines a museum, gallery, gift shop, Sami library and a Sea Sami kitchen serving traditional food. The building also houses the Riddu Riđđu indigenous festival office, a Sami language center and a branch of the Sami Parliament. Exhibitions cover the art, culture and daily life of northern peoples, with a particular focus on the Sea Sami communities of the Lyngen fjord area.
