Over 1200 years ago, thousands of Scandinavians boarded the longboats and set sail for distant shores, making the Vikings world famous. From the late 700s to 1050, the Vikings became known for a bit of everything. Terrible and bloody looting. Matchless craftsmanship. Grocery genius. Fearless fighting technique on the battlefield. Eminent sailing and ship navigation. Meet the Vikings and see their treasures, which they traded for, plundered, or even forged in silver and gold. Among other things. the famous Tissø ring and the Fæsted treasure.

Designer Jim Lyngvild has put a face on our famous and infamous ancestors - the Vikings. Meet the warrior, the berserker, the farmer, the housewife and many more. See the weapons of the warriors and the treasures they stole or traded for.
