Sammendrag

Regional museums are shifting their focus away from collections and are involving themselves in urban planning, place design and place making. ‘History’ has become an identity brand which marks sights. During the last decade, museums have therefore engaged in a new role as cultural innovators. When transforming urbanity into experiencescapes, the museal competence regarding ‘the local past’ is recycled into geographies of recreational consumption. This article discusses a particular case of urban planning – the development of the Isegran tourist and recreational area in Fredrikstad, Norway. Here the town’s city council included the local museum in defining a ‘master plan’ for cultural regeneration. Urban place making took its point of departure in the town’s maritime history.
