Jugendstilsenteret og KUBE

Super informative, compact museum that was excellent for learning more about Ålesund’s history. It was cool to go here before walking more around the city and recognizing all the Art Noveau around town! The contemporary exhibits were wonderful too. A must-visit!

What a wonderful museum! I love small niche museums and this one is great. Architecturally significant for its Art Nouveau design. There is a great collection of enamels; things like teaspoons, decorative items, other tableware. There is some furniture from the era. And the front entrance is a former pharmacy with all the drawers. And be sure to look for the owls

I understood Art Nouveau much better after this illuminating trip. The whole building itself is a work of art and more immersive than expected. Lovely staff, quirky and honesty box run cafe, owls everywhere. It's as if a fantasy elf designed an apothecary and living quarters. The art museum attached wasn't that great tho but included in the price.

Very much enjoyed this gem of a museum, the innovative Time Machine (also in English if required) gave us a great insight into the area's history. The helpful team kindly rejigged the art nouveau history slide shows to also play in English. The downstairs display indicating the battles to preserve the local architecture were familiar, whatever country you are from. Coffee and biscuits available. A short walk from the cruise terminal.

Interesting museum. The time machine described the fire and reconstruction nicely. The top portion was only a house with affluent furnishings (but I have no idea about the significance of who lived here).

Beautiful art nouveau building with an interesting display and movie on Norways's Jungenstil movement. Also, all the other displays and exhibits were set up beautifully with detailed descriptions in English. Really enjoyed our visit here!!

Beautiful..... A very nice old place in Alesund. Worth for a short stay, also the nice museum.

This lovely Art Noveau museum collection is housed in an old Art Noveau pharmacy building that is equally lovely. The admission price includes use of the lockers, which was a welcome way to leave raincoats and backpacks behind for a while. A tunnel connects to the KUBE. Admission also includes the Fishing Museum, about a 10-minute walk away.
