We have Åland souvenirs, handicraft by local talents and unique Pommern products. Pop around to the museum shop next time you are looking for that special gift.

På en bakgrund av mörkt trä syns två mässingskrokar. Till höger och strax ner om mitten på bilden syns en krok föreställande ett ankare, med kroken längst ner, och ett rep som löper diagonalt över ankaret från dess ring högsst upp. Till höger och lite högre upp på bilden finns en mässingskrok föreställande ett roder, med en längre krok längst ner.
