Collections

The museum collects, saves, exhibits and studies winter sports-related artefacts. The winter sports collection includes old and modern material representing cross-country skiing, ski jumping, Nordic combined and biathlon as well as alpine skiing. The collection also covers the tradition of recreational skiing, snow games, manufacture of winter sports equipment and the activities of winter sports associations.  The collections include, for instance, skis and poles, winter sport-related textiles, prizes, photographs, books and stamps. The entire recorded history is represented, but the focus is on the 20th century.
