The museum has been established in a former boatyard where cutters were built for the coastal fisheries. The original machines have been preserved and renovated, so that at certain times visitors can see the wheels turning and how wood is trimmed with an adze.

The museum also depicts the historical background of Vorupør. Once a prominent town with twenty seven large coastal boats. Details are shown of the coastal population's living conditions, their toil and drudgery and the spiritual revival movement.
