The Varanger Sami Museum (Template:Lang-se, Norwegian: Varanger Samiske Museum, VSM) is a museum for Sami culture and history in Varangerbotn in Nesseby in Troms og Finnmark.[1][2][3]

The museum is working with the Sea Sami history along Varangerfjord, Sami prehistory and contemporary Sami culture. The museum was established in 1983, and has since 2012 been a part of the joint museum Deanu ja Várjjat Museasiida.[4]

The main building was erected in 1994, inspired by traditional Sami architecture. The main building contains a basis exhibition, the children's room Stállobiedju (the Stallo's den) and temporary exhibitions. VSM is also maintaining the cultural landscape and the excavations at Mortensnes (Ceavccageađge).[5][6]
