Muonio home region museum

The Muonio home region museum is open during summer.

The Muonio home region museum is located in Emma and Alfred Niva's yard. They built "Emmanpirtti" in its current location after the wars, and many of the objects in the exhibition are the legacy of Emma and her sister.

The main building was built at the end of the 19th century and was originally a two-family apartment. There is a memorial plaque on the outer wall of the main building, which shows the northernmost Jaeger stage road. The granary moved from Ylimuonio dates from the 1850s.

The museum was founded in 1982, when the main building was moved from Kihlanki to its current location. The plot also houses a drying barn and a boathouse moved from Kihlanki. Although the wars destroyed most of Muonio, current and former Muonio residents have donated so much artefacts to the local museum that the museum was opened to the public in the summer of 1991.
