Nestled between mountains and fjords lies Njardarheimr, an authentic Viking village where history comes to life. Here, you’ll experience how the Vikings lived over a thousand years ago – with genuine craftsmanship, traditional buildings, weapons, clothing, and everyday life.

Modern-day Vikings welcome you with knowledge and enthusiasm, offering a unique insight into our Nordic heritage. This is not a museum – it’s a living village where you can smell the tar, hear the blacksmith’s hammer, and maybe even try your hand at archery!

Gudvangen is a beautiful and authentic little village at the end of the UNESCO-listed Nærøyfjord – a place that truly showcases the real Norway.
Surrounded by towering mountains and waterfalls on all sides, Gudvangen offers a peaceful and charming atmosphere – and it’s here we’ll enjoy our lunch.
