Lofotr Viking Museum

This was an absolutely amazing place. So much history, wonderful artifacts, saw a guy making leather shoes sewing my hand. Lovely gift shop, cafe and if you want a "guided tour" there is an "additional charge" on top of entry fee. Well worth seeing ❤️

Finally I have a chance to go this place!! 🗡️ I went on Wednesday and the atmosphere is very calm, stunning view and a bit cold 🥶 So I recommend to come inside this building because it's warm and historical!!!! And I will plan to come back here again in Summer season for the Viking boat 🫶

Lofotr Viking Museum offers a fascinating look into Viking history with its realistic longhouse, detailed props, and knowledgeable tour guides full of interesting facts. Unfortunately, many of the hands-on activities like archery and axe throwing only operate in summer, so there wasn’t much to do during our visit — but it’s still well worth a stop if you’re in Lofoten.

Fantastic; very interesting. Viking museum lots of interesting sections .from old games ; fur products. Viking artifacts. Must place to visit . Viking farm is a replica of the original which was discovered in 1980 . Opposite is the original excavation marked with stone artifacts found . The building on entry as a cafe and souvenir shop also toilets.alao a interactive museum.

One of my highlights for the area, wasn't expecting it to be quite as amazing as it was. The Viking sailing experience is phenomenal (last boat at 4:30pm). Running horses, axe throwing, archery, and all the staff are so pleasant!

I liked that everything is included in the price. The beginning of the museum where you listen, is a little short and could have improvement, but the rest is very good. I like the longhouse, axe throwing and arrow shooting. It's also a boat included to top the experience. Unfortunately I was a little too cold to try it this day, but looks fun. It has also a souvenir and taxfree shop.

Very friendly and enthusiastic staff. The information and relics were really good. The long house was very immersive, we sat for the lamb soup…tasty. My teens and I enjoyed the minute walk to the archery, axe throwing, light hearted forest games and boat ride. A really good 3hours.

We enjoyed the museum very much. The reconstructed long hall is amazing, we enjoyed the English presentation and felt we learned quite a lot. The presenters were in period dress. There was a wood carver working on an ornate piece, we learned that fabric die was made from plants, think blueberries, etc. The wood was painted with pigments from minerals. There were displays of carding wool, making it nto thread, and weaving. Dried Cod fish, animal pellets, game birds, etc were on display. Weaving with various natural, fibrous, and flexible plant materials. There's a great deal to see in the long hall. In the summer you may take a ride in a traditional Viking boat. We were there Sept 2 and were able to throw axes, shoot bow and arrows. There is a boat maintenance building at the water. There are hogs, Nordland horses, and sheep that we saw. The movie was interesting. Staff very friendly and knowledgeable.
