The Norwegian Explorers of Minnesota is a scion society of the Baker Street Irregulars of New York, dedicated to keeping green the memory of the Master, Sherlock Holmes, and honoring his creator, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Membership is open to all.

The group meets four to six times a year in the Minneapolis-Saint Paul area and holds its annual dinner in December. The group's newsletter, Explorations, is published irregularly three times a year, and the Sherlock Holmes Study Group meets monthly to discuss a tale from the Canon. An affiliated troupe, The Red-Throated League, performs Holmes radio scripts written by Edith Meiser.

The Norwegian Explorers are closely affiliated with the Sherlock Holmes Collections at the University of Minnesota, which contains the largest assemblage of Sherlockian materials in the world. The Explorers and the Collections have sponsored several conferences, which in recent years have been held every three years.
