Food in the Viking era
The range and availability of foods during the viking age was much less than today. Then again their food was 100% ecological, sustainable and fresh. They cooked mainly with seasonable produce.
You are invited to an evening where you will learn about ingredients and techniques used 1000 years ago. And even though this was a time of frugality, our ancestors knew how to create a proper feast when they invited guests. With your own cup, knife, and a hearty appetite, we will relive this experience now. SKÅL!
A unique experience
Welcome to a unique culinary experience over the open fire gathered around the long table with Viking friends and king. With your personal cup and knife have a seat and let us feast.
Skål, DNV!
Hardraade Vikingskipforening
The Hardraade Viking Ship Association has initiated a project to build a full-scale Viking ship, which will sail on Lake Tyrifjorden. The ship will be constructed in a traditional manner, using authentic materials as much as practically possible, mirroring the methods employed during the Viking Age.
The name "Hardraade" is derived from the renowned Viking king Harald Hardraade (1015-1066), who hailed from Stein Farm in Ringerike. Stein Farm is situated by Steinsfjorden, and Hardraade ventured far and wide with his ships. Therefore, it is fitting that a ship on Lake Tyrifjorden bears his name.
