Information
The Viking Ship Museum in Roskilde offers a unique opportunity to experience Viking ships, the Viking Age and life at sea.
Five original 11th-century Viking ships, excavated from Roskilde Fjord in 1962, are on display in the Viking Ship Hall. The hall also houses an exhibition describing – hour by hour – a sea-borne assault on Roskilde by Vikings from Norway.
Many activities are available on Museum Island. The museum boatyard is located on the island, where different boats are being reconstructed. The Archaeological Workshop and the Activity Centre, which houses the school service, are also located on the island.
The large museum boat collection, containing Viking ships and other Nordic boats, is berthed in the harbour on Museum Island – and the collection is not just for show. During the summer season, boat trips are arranged several times daily, allowing visitors to try their hand at the oars or setting the sail.
