On the eastern edge of Umeå is a museum for the Västerbotten County, revealing the history and unique culture of this part of northern Sweden.

Among many things, you’ll get to know about the Sami people, and enter their typical huts (kåtan), made from timber and peat moss.

Some 40 historic buildings from around the county have been dismantled and rebuilt at the outdoor museum, among which are a threshing house, farmhouse and bakery.
