Description

The Viking Town is a fascinating journey back in time to a 10th-century Viking settlement on the island of Heimaey. The museum recreates Iceland's first stone houses, where you can discover how the first Nordic settlers lived among authentic reconstructions of turf houses.

The interiors are surprisingly spacious and meticulously detailed, from traditional costumes to wooden furniture. Interactive exhibits with wax figures and the opportunity to taste Viking dishes bring history to life. The whole tour takes about 30 minutes, perfectly combining education with entertainment.
