The places to visit in Kirkenes are Grenselandmuseet (The Border Area Museum), which shows the history of war and peace along the Norwegian–Russian border, Sami art exhibitions by the artist John Savio (1902–1938), and a history of the mining industry in the area. Almost every last Thursday of each month the Russian Market takes place on the central square where traders from Murmansk sell their merchandise.
