BorealisAlta er en interaktiv utstilling om
nordlysets og fenomenets magi.
Utstillingen er basert på samiske myter
og sagn, historien om forskningen rundt
nordlyset og dens betydning og kobling
til Altas historie. Utstillingen viser også
vitenskapen om nordlyset og hvorfor
dette fascinerende lysfenomenet
oppstår. BorealisAlta er en utstilling som
samler vitenskap og myter i et senter
som vil være både en støtte og en
attraksjon i seg selv. BorealisAlta ligger i
Altas nye kirke og inkluderer også visning
i Nordlyskatedralen
 

The beauty and power of the northern
lights have fascinated people across the
ages. While various cultures have told
their own stories about the aurora
borealis, researchers have been looking
for a scientific explanation of the
phenomenon. This interactive exhibition
brings together different stories about
the northern lights and its magical
qualities. BorealisAlta is an interactive
exhibition with unique and atmospheric
experiences based on Sami myths about
the northern lights.
The exhibition is tailormade for the
Northern Light City of Alta, as since year
2000, has been named the city of the
Northern Lights. This is because of the
historical importance Alta has had in
developing knowledge about the
phenomenon and the good conditions for
experiencing the Northern Lights. We
have gathered science and myths in a
center that will be both a support and an
attraction in itself. BorealisAlta is located
in the Northern Lights Cathedral, the new
church of Alta that has already become a
well known icon and symbol of the town.
The church combines spiritual and
natural elements in its design and
artwork. The experience includes both
the Northern Lights Cathedral and
BorealisAlta.
