Here are the unique items from Andrée’s polar expedition

The remains of the expedition’s members, Salomon August Andrée, Knut Frænkel and Nils Strindberg, were cremated and buried.

But many of the objects found were taken with them and are preserved at the Grenna museum polar center.

In the video clip below, see eight of these objects – presented by museum director Håkan Jorikson.
