Find out more about how we recreate the Viking ships with the tools and techniques of the Vikings. Join a tour around the Viking Ship Museum's shipyard and harbor area on the Museum Island

At the shipyard, we build reconstructions of the original Viking ships that are on display in the Viking Ship Hall. By building and sailing the recreated Viking ships, we get an insight into the knowledge of the past connected to the Vikings' sailing: choice of materials, construction techniques and organization of the work, time consumption, navigation and sailing skills

During the tour, the you will hear the experiences the museum has gained through 40 years of Viking shipbuilding, and the guide will also tell you about the importance of ships in the Viking Age and how we use the reconstructed ships today.
