Norway has the three best preserved Viking ships in the world. In addition to the ship burials from Oseberg, Gokstad, Tune and Borre, the Museum of the Viking Age will exhibit weapons, jewelry and other objects from the entire Viking Age.
The new museum will be three times as large as the former Viking Ship Museum, and will house exhibitions, a restaurant, a lecture hall, a museum shop, a museum park, a separate area for schoolchildren, a laboratory with public access, and a research center. At the Historical Museum in the city center, you can now see some of the most iconic objects from the Viking Age that will be in the new museum.
