On 11 January 2024, the ambitious vision for the construction of a new, sustainable and climate-proof building for the five Viking ships, a transformation of the Viking Ship Hall and a transformation of the landscape around the museum was revealed.
With a winner of the architectural competition, the first building blocks for a permanent climate-proof New Viking Ship Museum have been laid, In total, the new museum has received DKK 310 million in funding to secure the Viking ships. The new building makes no secret of what it is. It is a home for ships from the Viking Age. The new building is created with visible load-bearing wooden structures that speaks to the current Viking Ship Hall.
