One of the most popular exhibits of the museum is the Famous Finn, or the Finnøy Polar Bear, which is a skeleton that is over 12,400 years old. It was recovered from the village of Judaberg on Finnøy, and is the most complete Ice Age polar bear from its time. The museum also has exhibits from the Stone Age and Bronze Age, that can be seen in the many antique structures and objects presented here. The museum is home to objects that date back to almost 11,000 years, making it one of the richest archaeological fields for ancient civilisations in Norway.
