Viking World

Njarðvík, Iceland Museum

One of the Best Places To Visits in Njarðvík Top-rated.online cuts through the clutter, highlighting only the reviews that are most helpful, earn the most likes, or come from the most active contributors. A very good museum with a Viking replica boat from the 9th century, which one time did cross the ocean up to New York. There's a lot of explained history. This is an awesome Museum. Getting into the long boat was really cool Saw some Innuit magical creatures carvings that I never saw in any of the other museums so that was really cool. There's also a large viking boat that you can board (it's a recreation, but really good one). There's also chainmai and helmets you can put on to take photos, they're quite heavy Small but interesting and informative museum. Lots of exhibits and reconstructions of Viking wares. Worth a visit. I liked that it was close to the airport, yet has enough to see to kill a few hours. I almost read everything, I also liked that you are allowed to step foot in the boat that crossed the ocean for the 1000 year anniversary. I would have loved to read some more, but my son was antsy. We did, however, play some chess downstairs. I wish I could give 10 ⭐. This was such a cool experience. It was very interactive with Viking garb to try on (including what appear to be historically accurate helmets!). Walking onto and about the longship was like stepping back into time. The exhibits with replicas and artifacts were engaging--even and to our 11 year old. Finding this was a great surprise. We had some time in Keflavík before checking into our hotel so we decided to check this museum out. So glad that we did as we really enjoyed it. Don’t let the outside of the building deceive you. It looks small on the outside but it is packed full of exhibits in different halls so there is a ton to see and learn about Viking culture. The replica of the Viking ship was really cool and you were able to walk on it as well. Staff were excellent and friendly. Well worth checking out if you are in the area. Very informative museum on the entire Viking history...will take several hours to really read, see and experience the place in its entirety. The ship that sailed from Iceland to Canada in 2000 for the millennial celebration of Leif Erikson's crossing. Unsure if you're concerned about price, but fairly pricey admission tickets if you just come on your own. I did not have time to tour the grounds.
