The museum takes care of a large and important photographic collection \u2013 almost 500,000 pictures. The photographs are the work of both amateur and professional Troms\u00f8 photographers, including Christian Hansen and Knut Stokmo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We have made nearly ten thousand photographs available on the internet, and in the coming years we aim to make even more images available for the public to see and download.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The majority of the pictures in our photographic collection contain motifs from Troms\u00f8 and the surrounding area. Fjellanger Wider\u00f8es flyfoto is a collection that shows Troms\u00f8 as seen from the air over a thirty year period from 1936-1969. We are extremely proud to house fourteen rare Dageurreotypes from the mid 19th<\/sup> century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We also have photographs showing the city environment, studio portraits from different periods, landscape images, and pictures from societies and events \u2013 including Perspektivet Museum events. Together the photographs give a unique look into Troms\u00f8\u2019s history from the middle of the 19th<\/sup> century and right up until today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Here you can browse, comment on and share almost 10,000 of our photographs. You can download them for free, or order high quality files from the museum for a fee.<\/p>\n\n\n\nVisit our photo collection on Flickr<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
