About the Museum

 

Founded in 1979, the National Nordic Museum is the only institution of its size and scale in the United States to present the history and culture of the entire Nordic region (Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, the regions of the Faroe Islands, Greenland, and Åland, and the cultural region of Sápmi) and the legacy of Nordic immigrants to the United States.

 

Located along Seattle’s working waterfront in an iconic building that embodies Nordic design, the institution is both a museum and a community gathering place.

Celebrating the Nordic life, art, and culture from the past to the present

 

Shared Nordic values and perspectives serve as guiding principles for the core exhibition experience, tracing Nordic themes of connection to nature, sustainability, social justice, and innovation from the earliest anthropological records through contemporary Nordic society.

 

History, Myths & Sagas

 

Viking culture lives on, in large part due to myths, sagas, and folklore shared throughout the centuries. At the Museum, we explore the unique myths and history you may already know and love as well as the lesser known parts of Nordic culture.

Commitment to Indigenous Peoples and Cultures

 

The National Nordic Museum acknowledges the impact of colonialism on indigenous peoples. We celebrate the continuity of indigenous communities in the Nordic countries and North America through our exhibitions, programs, and collections, and we cultivate respectful relationships with each other through partnerships.

 

Today’s Nordic World

 

The Nordic countries often rank among the happiest in the world. We want to help our visitors capture a bit of the hygge lifestyle for themselves. Our exhibits, programs, Store, and Freya all help capture the essence of modern Nordic living, informed by the past.

 

Our Story: How the National Nordic Museum came to be

 

The Nordic Museum was founded in 1979 to honor the legacy of thousands of Nordic immigrants who came to the Northwest at the turn of the 20th century. The Museum opened to the public in 1980 as the Nordic Heritage Museum leasing space in the historic Webster School in Seattle neighborhood of Ballard. It was the only museum in North America to represent the five Nordic countries of Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden.

 

2018 marked a historic milestone when the renamed Nordic Museum opened a brand new purpose-built 57,875 square feet facility in the heart of Ballard on Seattle’s working waterfront. The Museum’s achievements were acknowledged in 2019 when the Museum was designated as the National Nordic Museum by an act of Congress.

 

In its iconic building that embodies Nordic design, the institution functions both as a museum and a community gathering place. The National Nordic Museum presents values-based exhibitions and programs that are grounded in Nordic values and invites a diverse audience to celebrate history and culture, providing a forum to expand dialogue that inspires new ways of thinking.

Some random notes:

 

Google: our top 10 sites datacenters (>5MW) have an average PUE of 1.2 (for each watt of computation .2 watts are used for cooling and overhead)

 

EPRI: datacenters consumed 1.5% of electricity in 2005. Today it's 3%. Telco central offices are becoming data centers.

 

DHI Group: 10% of world’s energy is used for pumping and treating water.

A couple of times a week, a group of retirees in my hometown usually go Nordic walking together. We do this all year round if it is not very cold or raining heavily.
