Viking Ship Museum – Roskilde
After spending a day in Copenhagen checking out the sites and visiting the Carlsberg Brewery, we jumped on a train to Roskilde to visit the Viking Ship Museum (Vikingeskibsmuseet). (Location)
In 1962, five Viking ships were uncovered in the mud at the bottom of the Roskilde Fjord near Skuldelev, Denmark. Therefore, this year, 2012, the Viking Ship Museum is celebrating the 50th anniversary of that discovery. Very interesting place to visit.
