Here you can imagine how people gathered to eat, socialize and discuss important issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-id=\"117534\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Ved-1-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-117534\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Ved-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Ved-1-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Ved-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Ved-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Ved-1-433x244.jpg 433w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Ved-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-id=\"117535\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Vikingaby-hus-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-117535\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Vikingaby-hus-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Vikingaby-hus-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Vikingaby-hus-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Vikingaby-hus-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Vikingaby-hus-433x244.jpg 433w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Vikingaby-hus.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-id=\"117533\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_1910-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-117533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_1910-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_1910-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_1910-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_1910-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_1910-433x244.jpg 433w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_1910.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The area also features a forge, a cookhouse with barbecue area, herb gardens and runestones.

How did people stay warm in the winter? What did they eat? What did a typical working day look like? The Viking Village provides an opportunity to get a little closer to the answers, not least when it is staffed and craftsmen show how different tasks were carried out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-4 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-id=\"117537\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Blommor-17-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-117537\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Blommor-17-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Blommor-17-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Blommor-17-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Blommor-17-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Blommor-17-433x244.jpg 433w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Blommor-17.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-id=\"117538\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/B\u00e5t-vikingaby-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-117538\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/B\u00e5t-vikingaby-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/B\u00e5t-vikingaby-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/B\u00e5t-vikingaby-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/B\u00e5t-vikingaby-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/B\u00e5t-vikingaby-433x244.jpg 433w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/B\u00e5t-vikingaby.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-id=\"117536\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/B\u00e5t-8-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-117536\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/B\u00e5t-8-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/B\u00e5t-8-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/B\u00e5t-8-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/B\u00e5t-8-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/B\u00e5t-8-433x244.jpg 433w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/B\u00e5t-8.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Att_lara_sig_om_vikingatiden_och_runorna\"><\/span>Learning about the Viking Age and the runes<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During our visit we also heard a lot about the Viking Age, runes and people&#039;s lives. We talked about travel and contacts with other countries, how people could look for work far from home and the importance of status and social standing. We also heard about burial customs and what graves can tell us today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It&#039;s easy to think of the Viking Age as a time of warriors and raiding parties, but here it becomes clear that the story is also about families, everyday life, crafts, trade and people trying to make a living.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Viking-2-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Viking vid Vikingabyn Storholmen\" class=\"wp-image-117521\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Viking-2-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Viking-2-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Viking-2-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Viking-2-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Viking-2-433x244.jpg 433w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Viking-2.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And although the Viking village itself is a modern reconstruction, it is located in an area with real traces from the Iron Age. Right next door, in the Norr Malma nature reserve, is an old burial ground with a large number of graves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This gives the place another dimension. Here you can both experience a recreated Viking environment and see remains of people who actually lived in the area during the Iron Age.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-5 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"574\" data-id=\"117529\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Figur-2-1024x574.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-117529\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Figur-2-1024x574.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Figur-2-600x336.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Figur-2-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Figur-2-768x431.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Figur-2-433x243.jpg 433w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Figur-2-1200x673.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Figur-2.jpg 1202w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-id=\"117528\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Runsten-vikingabyn-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-117528\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Runsten-vikingabyn-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Runsten-vikingabyn-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Runsten-vikingabyn-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Runsten-vikingabyn-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Runsten-vikingabyn-433x244.jpg 433w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Runsten-vikingabyn.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-id=\"117523\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Runsten-1-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-117523\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Runsten-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Runsten-1-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Runsten-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Runsten-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Runsten-1-433x244.jpg 433w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Runsten-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Vad_kan_man_gora_i_Vikingabyn_Storholmen\"><\/span>What can you do in the Storholmen Viking Village?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When the Storholmen Viking Village is open to the public during the summer, visitors can not only look at the buildings, but also participate in various activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Depending on the day&#039;s program, you can try traditional crafts, work with wool, create objects in clay or learn to write with runes.
