Visit us with your School Class
Visit us with your school class! We offer fun, interesting and educational tours for preeschools, elementary schools and adult students. The class gets to experience the Viking Age with several senses – examine and touch objects, taste Viking Age snacks and take a trip in our exciting Viking Ride, Ragnfrid’s Saga. The content of the tour follows the school’s history curriculum.
We only accept school visits Monday to Friday before 11:00 a.m. (not applicable during school holidays).
Preschools
For preschools we offer a guided tour for children with one of our Vikings in the exhibition. Learn about how Viking Age children lived, examine and touch cool objects and listen to exciting stories.

The adventure ride Ragnfrid’s Saga can be perceived as scary by smaller children and is therefore recommended from 7 years. The children’s legal guardians decide if their child is allowed to go on the ride. The teachers tell the museum staff which children can go.

The content of the tour follows the grade’s curriculum in history (for Swedish schools).

”A very nice and educational visit. The children in the class thought it was an amazing place! Good and knowledgable guide. We appriciated the opportunity to experience the lives of the Vikings with all senses; sight, hearing, taste, smell and touch! Something that suited everybody. Many of the students thought that Ragnfrid’s Saga was the best of all, what an adventure! No comments are necessary. An experience many will remember for a long time.”
