The open-air museum consisting of buildings tracing the history of the town was established as Skagen Bymuseum in 1927 by the citizens of Skagen. It also has displays focusing on its fisheries, lifeboat services and navigation. Originally located in Skagen's Østerby, in 1938 it was moved to its current site on Svallerbakken in the dunes bordering Vesterby. In 1997, the name was changed to Skagen By- og Egnsmuseum. In 2009 it became associated with the region's other cultural heritage museums under the heading Nordjyllands Kystmuseum and re-named Kystmuseet Skagen.
