The walls, ceiling and floor of The Silver Museum set no bounds for our work. The Museum's boundaries stretch from mountain area to the forests, from the stone ages to the 20th Century. Our task is to document the traces, study the connections and increase knowledge concerning societies of the past. Knowledge should not be taken for granted and no truth is timeless. New questions come to light continually and search for answers. The gathering of knowledge sets a foundation for the Museum's other activities, for exhibitions, lectures and information.

At The Silver Museum, we work with research and documentation in research. There is a wide range of different projects: from research of colonisation processes during the time after the melting of the inland ice to the burial rituals and condition of the graves during the stone age. The Sami cultural landscape is part of an important activity area, where fieldwork involves the documentation of the building conditions and preservation of buildings. The Silver Museum also accepts assignments within cultural and environmental preservation areas and also partakes in the continual inventory of antique relics.
