    One of the world's most important discoveries from the Viking Age was made just outside Tønsberg in 1904; namely the discovery of the now famous Oseberg ship. The ship is 21.5 m long.

    Oseberg Vikingarv Tønsberg has built an archaeological replica of this ship. Only tools and construction methods identical to those used in the construction of the original ship in the Viking Age were used in construction. You can see the copy of the Oseberg ship at Vikingodden in Tønsberg Harbour. The original ship is on display at the Viking Ship Museum at Bygdøy in Oslo.

    The Klåstad ship

    Oseberg Viking Heritage, Tønsberg has built a replica of another famous Viking find: the Klåstad ship. Here, too, original methods and tools were used during construction. This original ship is also in the Slottsfjellsmuseet in Tønsberg.


    In 2021, construction of an archaeological replica of the Gokstad ship also began. The construction will take place at both the Vikingodden in Tønsberg and the whaling monument in Sandefjord. Here you have the opportunity to follow the construction.
