Viking Museum, Archaeological museum in central Aarhus, Denmark.
The Viking Museum occupies a basement space beneath the Nordea Bank building, displaying archaeological findings from Viking-era excavations at the same location.
Excavations between 1963 and 1964 revealed ancient structures, artifacts, and human remains from the Viking Age, leading to the museum's establishment in 1968.
The exhibits include a scale model depicting Aarhus during Harold Bluetooth's era around 980, alongside replicas of everyday Viking items and original artifacts.
The museum opens Monday through Friday from 10:15 to 18:00, weekends from 10:15 to 17:00, and accepts credit card payments while offering free entry for visitors under 18.
The museum stands at the exact location and depth where Vikings established Aarhus 1200 years ago, preserving the original settlement's position through centuries.
