Om
Hurtige fakta: En vikingeskib i fuld størrelse hviler under en lysfyldt glashal, hvor de røgfyldte egeplanker, jernnitter og buede ribber kan ses fra en nærliggende gangbro. Interaktive skærme parrer saga-uddrag med praktiske navigationsdemoer, så du kan prøve at læse stjerner og vejr som en norrøn søfarer.
Højdepunkter: Bøj dig over gelænderet, og den tjerrelugtende eg, jernnitter og skyggefulde ribber får skroget til at føles næsten levende, som en pause i en rejse, du kan gå rundt om. En vægskilt angiver skrogets længde til 22 meter, et tal du kan teste ved at gå gennem galleriet og pludselig forstå, hvor mange roere der ville have delt det trange rum.
Insidertips
- Bring a windproof layer for the ship deck, temperatures on the harbour can be much cooler than in town.
- Climb onto the Íslendingur's deck for the best photos of the hull and the surrounding harbour.
- Watch the short introductory film on arrival to get context before exploring the exhibits.
- Avoid midday on cruise ship days by visiting early or late, weekend afternoons get busiest in high season.
