Professional theatre with Sami as stage language. Tours in all of Sápmi, and also tours for promoting Sámi culture internationally, are an important part of the mission.
Beaivváš Sámi Našunálateáhter is a Norwegian theatre and theatre company that uses Sami language as its performing language. In addition, it is the only Sami-language theatre in the country. The theatre's official aim is "to form and activate our own cultural sources, to inspire, renew, motivate, to broaden and to bring forward the Sami culture, as well as to create kinship and understanding between different cultures."

Kautokeino bygdetun
Sámi museum indoors and outdoor museum showing the old Kautokeino village.
Church from 1958 built in old style. The old church was burnt by the German in 1944.
Astonishing large exhibition, mirroring the interests of the owners: Lapish and Nordic design and handicraft is mixed with oriental goods and interior design. The silver jewellery made here, nice as it is, occupies just a modest section. Nice view over Kautokeino. Café.
