Become a Viking for a day - join the activities for all girls and boys. Every day, we offer the chance to live out your dream of being a Viking.
Take part in warrior training as a man-at-arms and challenge the adults to tests of strength, throwing games and tug-of-war. Every day, the proud chieftain will display his weapons and teach the young warriors to fight with sword and shield. You can also bake Viking biscuits over an open fire!
Falconer and birds of prey
From the 18th – 20th October the falconer will have his hunting birds on display and you will have the opportunity to get close to the birds and to get answers to what ever questions you may have. You can even experience the brush of the wings of the lightening-fast falcons as they fly right over your head.
You can meet the beautiful birds and their experienced falconer Frank Skårup at the Museum Island the 18th – 20th October from 10:30 - 16:30 and he wil show the birds in action the same days at 11:00 and 15:00 in front of the Viking Ship Exhibition Hall.
Climb Aboard - a new exhibition in the Viking Ship Hall
