Guided tour in The Klåstad Hall at the museum

The Viking Age was a time of major change, with growing trade networks and the rise of early towns and harbours.

At Slottsfjell Museum, you can discover the Klåstad Ship — a Viking shipwreck from around the year 1000, once loaded with whetstones from Eidsborg.
