Exhibitions at the Viking Ship Museum
The museum's exhibitions are modern historical narratives about the Vikings and their ships. Traditional forms of museum dissemination in text and images are combined with sound, light, digital installations, engaging activities and artistic expressions keeping the maritime culture alive for young and adults.
The audience are not brought back in time - the cultural history is brought into present day...
Maritime crafts
At the boatyard the boat builders build Viking Ships and Nordic boats with the tools and techniques used when the boats were originally built. At the boatyard you can explore exhibitions about ships and craftmanship.
The boat collection
The boat collection shows that many of the characteristics of Viking shipbuilding have survived a thousand years of development and can still be found in the Nordic boat of today. Along the harbour there are signs with information about each ship, so you can go explore the many types of Nordic boats on your own.
