  • Go back in time to the Viking Age

The Viking Museum is entirely dedicated to one of the most exciting times in Scandinavian history and takes you back to the period of around three hundred years between 800 and 1100. Its exhibition, based on historical facts and the most recent discoveries of Viking history, helps you understand who the Vikings really were.   

  • Immerse yourself in the daily life of the Vikings

The museum explains how the Vikings lived in a lively and interactive way. You can feel the weight of a Viking sword and helmet, discover their beliefs and the architecture of their houses, and fully immerse yourself in the daily life of these people through films, projections, and sound effects.  

  • Take a journey through 10th-century Europe

The main museum’s attraction is Ragnfrid’s Saga, an 11-minute captivating ride journey through 10th-century Europe. This adventure trail begins at a farm, and then you follow the Viking Harald, who has wasted all the family’s money and started his Viking Raid to win back his fortune and honor. 

The Viking Museum is located on the popular Stockholm island Djurgården at Djurgårdsvägen 48, Djurgårdsstrand 15. You can easily get there by public ferry. Take the Djurgårds or M/S Emelie ferry and get off at the pier Allmänna gränd, which is a 5-minute walk from the museum. 

Alternatively, you can reach the museum by bus or light rail. Take line 7 or bus route 67 to the Liljevalchs/Gröna Lund station.
