Meet the artisans
The Viking Ship Museum is a living museum with working artisans. The weaver demonstrates how sails are made, the ropemaker will let you try your hand on the rope walk and the woodcutter can teach you to make runes. In the summer boat builders work in the boatyard, where you can try your hand with an axe to experience what it’s like to handcraft planks of wood.
Summer games and sailing
Enjoy the summer sun at the Viking Ship Museum, walk along the harbour or cool off with an ice cream from Café Knarr. All summer long, children can build their own model boats and participate in Viking games. There are special activities and themes throughout the summer and special tours perfect for families.
