You can see, hear, discuss, and even taste the traditions of Barentsburg. But you can also touch them with your hands! In our Handicraft center, you will make a story of the town by yourself. 

You will be warmly welcomed by our fairies who will tell you about the history of the Center, will show their work processes, and share the basics of their handicraft during a workshop. There is also a souvenir shop with items that fit every taste. 

We are specifically proud of the unique hoodies with a polar bear on it! Within each new season, we upgrade the color-range, play around with color combos, and improve the models. The hoodies have become popular as in Barenstburg and Longyearbyen as well as worldwide.

If you happen to be in Barenstburg, that is a must-have as a souvenir.
