The AMMASSALIK museum comprises 5 buildings, the main one in the town's old church (1903) near the harbor. The museum boasts a fine, comprehensive collection of traditional artifacts ranging from kayaks, sledges and tupilaks to wooden masks and traditional costumes, as well as a number of busts by sculptor Eigil Knuth and various works by local artists.
