Historie

GUDVANGEN DEVELOPING COMPANY STARTS BILDING VIKING TOWN

On the area where traditional Viking market is held each summer, a permanent Viking Town is soon to be established. The construction work will start in August 2016, and phase one will be open for business already in May 2017


The concept of Viking Valley

The village will be called “NJARDARHEIMR” (which means “the home dedicated to the Norse God Njord”) The Viking Valley as a concept will be an historical, living and working Viking settlement, where the Viking age and their exciting history will be brought to life. Members of the public will be able to interact and step back into time to experience and engulf the Viking age for themselves.
Viking Valley will become an educational park dedicated to forging memories through learning and interacting with the inhabitants of the Viking Town. All will be in accordance with archaeological evidence but still in a fun and entertaining way.


About the Viking Town:

The Viking Town will consist of buildings which in total, will cover over 1100 square feet .

It will consume approximately 18000 cubic feet of timber.

The carvings and decorations on the structures will be based on traditional Viking styles eg: Borre, Urnes, Jelling, and Oseberg.

The houses will be built with previous experience in reconstructing Viking era buildings as reference.

The ironworks eg: hinges for the doors and locks will be made by a blacksmith with life long experience from that kind of historical work.

We will use traditional authentic paint such as based on oxblood for the embellishments.

We will utilise material found in the fjord district and use peat and wood for shingle, like that used in the stave churches.

It’s our ambition to build a Viking settlement of high quality for both learning and enjoyment.

This is an excellent place for family fun. My 6-year-old loved everything here, and so did I. It is in a beautiful location and gives you a perspective on how it used to look. The guided tour starts every half hour, and I highly recommend it even though I’m usually not too fond of it — it is clever, funny, and very educational. The only thing I didn’t like at all was the food at the Viking restaurant. And it was the only place during our two weeks vacation where we were unlucky with a dining choice. So I’d recommend eating elsewhere and having a Viking village adjust their menu to modern days. Otherwise, it's a great place to visit!
The idea is nice and we had an okay time. Just didn’t get the open learning feeling from the voluntary group walking around the place. Most acted a bit distantly instead of encouraging to try stuff. But if you travel with kids, definitely should visit it. We spend max 2 hours here, we did the guided tour and walked around. It’s smaller than you think!
Great experience for young and old. As you tour a replica Viking village, you will also have a guided history of life in that era. Learn about their history of war, daily life including ship and boat building, gods and beliefs, making of wool, and farming. Story tellers will share their daily life as you step back in time. You can try out hatchet throwing, archery, or test your swordsmanship, dressed as a viking. A fun 2+ hour excursion.
Amazing experience like no other through and through. The moment you park in front of the valley and look around you, you get hit with an incredible sense of being stuck in your childhood favourite fantasy movie by the unique scenery surrounding you from all the directions. In the valley you get to look at the authentic viking lifestyle, non hollywood romanticized history lessons and a gift shop of hand crafted viking items. If you're lucky, you'll catch the fair, where you can either buy hand crafted weapons or even a full armor for the daring ones. Hell, you can even get an authentic viking tattoo inside for which I'm definitely coming back.
Definitely do the guided tour it's free with admission they run once every half hour and ours was about 40 minutes long. Included lots of very interesting information about how the Vikings lived. Tours in EnglishBesøkte stedetPå en helgedagVentetidIngen ventetidForhåndsbestilling anbefalesNei
The village itself was fun, but the most memorable surprise was the Viking Cafe in the back. The food was honestly really really good, much more than I would expect from a tourist attraction site. The meat stew and the grilled meat I forget, both lamb I believe? were excellent. The quality was like a homecooked meal but very well prepared. If not for the Viking history, I do recommend this spot for the Viking Cafe in the back! Note: the cafe is not to be confused with the cafeteria at the front of the site, they are different restaurants.
Overall a very unique experience. Highly recommend the guided tour so that you can ask questions and understand what you’re seeing. The restaurant is very traditional, and thankfully they warn you. Even being warned, the food was challenging to eat but still rewarding to experience a traditional local meal.Besøkte stedetPå en ukedagVentetidIngen ventetidForhåndsbestilling anbefalesJa
I had an excellent time here learning about a typical viking village. The people who run the place are not actors, they live there and live the lifestyle. The sounding area is gorgeous and the village is really cool and educational. I do recommend bringing cash.
Passer fint for familier. Flott beliggenhet og fint laget. Men litt begrenset med info i forhold til historie, med mindre du aktivt oppsøker de som jobber der.Besøkte stedetPå en ukedagVentetidIngen ventetidForhåndsbestilling anbefalesNei
They provide really great tours and a comprehensive look at Viking life. There are fun activities for the whole family, including archery and axe throwing. Greg was a phenomenal tour guide! We really enjoyed our stop here, and also walking around the area afterwards. The cafe serves great lunch!Besøkte stedetPå en helgedagVentetidIngen ventetidForhåndsbestilling anbefalesNei
