What to expect
The Hanseatic Museum and Schøtstuene is a museum showcasing the history of the Hanseatic League in Bergen, Norway. The museum is located in one of the conserved wooden buildings on Bryggen, Finnegården, and covers the Hanseatic period of time in Bergen. The museum features authentic trading rooms, a merchant's office, sleeping places for the boys, and a guestroom. Visitors can explore the assembly halls for the Hanseatic merchants and learn about the history of the site, which dates back to 1360. The museum also offers guided tours, and there are activities for children and a garden to explore

Bergen
Activities: We visited the Hanseatic Museum, which was quite disappointing. It raised many philosophical questions without presenting reconstitutions or documents explaining the life of this league of merchants. We spent less than an hour there, with the children playing the wooden games
Highlights: The children lost interest quickly at the museum. We hoped to learn more about the history but the exhibition was more about abstract ideas ✨
