A museum in perfect harmony with its surroundings, the dome shape reflects the Viking burial mounds dotted across the landscape. Here, you can learn of Viking myths, legends, and culture, while viewing fascinating artifacts uncovered from the surrounding archaeological site. 

The excellent timeline is a great way of getting to grips with this particular slice of Nordic history, and its eventual demise with the establishment of Christianity in the 12th century. This is an attraction for all the family and well worth a short bus ride from Uppsala town center. Guided tours can be booked in advance.
