You're standing at the Norsk Bremuseum, the Norwegian Glacier Museum, in Fjærland. The village is part of the municipality of Sogndal, in Vestland county. Start by taking a good look at the building in front of you. It was designed by Norwegian architect Sverre Fehn. And he stayed involved. When the decision was made in 2002 to extend the museum, Fehn designed the extension too. The Ulltveit-Moe Climate Centre, which opened in 2007, is also his work. Can you spot where the old and the new parts meet?
