Description
Vikings: Beyond the Legend brings this rich, often-misunderstood culture to life, debunking stereotypes and providing a fascinating insight into Viking domestic life, rituals and beliefs.
Over 400 artefacts come together to form the largest collection of its kind displayed in Victoria. Among the rare treasures on show are the astoundingly beautiful skeletal remains of a Viking longship, one of the finest Thor's Hammer pendants ever found, and Viking swords dating from 700 AD to 1100 AD.
This exhibition, from the Swedish History Museum, shows us why, even 1000 years later, Viking culture still captivates imaginations.
