The highlight is the opportunity to come face-to-face with authentic Viking skeletons, offering a poignant connection to these people of the past.

  Part of an ancient causeway crossing what was once a fjord. This is not just a relic; it's a statement of power.

It’s a unique chance to stand on a tangible piece of Viking-age infrastructure and understand the importance of control over trade routes.
