Volunteers maintain the veteran ship S/S Bjørn.
On board S/S Bjørn, you will meet passionate volunteers who helped restore the ship and now maintain it and take passengers out on trips.
Feel free to ask the volunteers about the ship. They share vivid stories about everything from the restoration to its past life as an icebreaker in the last century, and how its mechanics and systems work.
Don’t miss the chance to step into the engine room and see how a steam-powered vessel – and its crew – operates. It takes real strength to keep up the steam!
