Special Exhibition
Kangerlussuaq and Narsarsuaq – Closing the Airports
The airports in Kangerlussuaq and Narsarsuaq were established as American military bases during World War II. For 80 years, they have served as Greenland’s lifelines and as hubs for both international civil aviation and scientific research. They have connected the country and served as the gateway to the rest of the world.
To preserve this cultural heritage, the Greenland National Museum & Archives has documented the history of the airports. Through an extensive photographic project with photographer Roberto Fortuna, we have captured the physical settings and the narratives tied to these locations, which can now be seen in the exhibition running from 2. March until 30. September 2026.
