The Romsdal Museum was established in 1912 and portrays buildings and interesting interiors from the whole region. The town street "Bygata" shows typical Molde town houses from the pre-war period. Get a guided tour or wander around on your own. The museum is situated in a beautiful park area with benches where you can relax, there is a duck pond and a pavilion with a great view over the city, the fjord and mountains.
