The Húsavík Whale Museum is a non-profit organization established in 1997.

Die Ausstellung konzentriert sich auf die Biologie und Bedrohung der in isländischen Gewässern vorkommenden Wale. Gesonderte Themenräume geben Einblicke in die Geschichte des isländischen Walfangs, Walbeobachtung, Walstrandungen und Naturgeschichte. Daneben verdeutlichen zahlreiche Skelette die Anatomie und Größe verschiedener Walarten. Die Ortschaft liegt im Nordosten Islands an der Küste der Skjálfandibucht wenig unterhalb des nördlichen Polarkreises. (de)
- 胡薩維克鯨魚博物館(冰島語:Hvalasafnið á Húsavík)是一個1997年成立的非牟利機構,位於冰島東北一個小鎮胡薩維克之中。該鎮處於斯喬爾萬迪灣的岸邊,剛好在北緯66°的北極圈之下。剛開始時,它是1997年夏天鎮上酒店的一個小形鯨魚展覽,隨後展覽移往漁港新近修復的魚餌小棚屋,並成立了一間股份公司「胡薩維克鯨魚中心」。由於人氣上升,短短三年便有另找一個更大更合適的房子,於是在2000年他們買下及改裝了鎮中的一所舊屠房,並在2002年正式對外開放。2004年,該公司轉為非牟利機構並改名為胡薩維克鯨魚博物館。到了2005年,博物館增加了鯨魚生態的綜合性展覽。 (zh)
