VISIT KAUPANG

Kaupang Viking town is open during the summer season.



Learn about the history of the Vikings' life in Kaupang town. Learn something new and experience crafts, religion and food culture.



The Town

Kaupang was founded around the year 800. The location was significant when the town was established as a hub for trade and production. At Kaupang today there is built a Viking house like they think it could have been. You can also see a model of the town and get to know how the town was located.



Research

Many have dug and researched Kaupang from the 1800s until now. Most of the city is still not excavated.

In the exhibition "What Kaupang Earth hid" you get an insight into how archaeologists worked, what they did and what we know about Kaupang history today.
