Autumn Holidays at the Viking Ship Museum

The autumn holiday activities take place both outside and inside.

Bonfires and Viking tents fill Strandengen - the beach meaddow- where the Viking ships are docked. At the shipyard, the boat builders are busy building a new Viking ship, and inside the Viking Ship Hall you can listen to fascinating stories about the Vikings and their impressive ships.
