Foteviken Museum, Open-air Viking museum in Höllviken, Sweden.

Located on the Höllviken peninsula, Foteviken Museum contains 23 reconstructed buildings spread across 70,000 square meters of coastal terrain.

The museum emerged from archaeological studies of Viking ships in Foteviken Bay and local research about the Battle of Fotevik in 1134.

The museum maintains a Viking Reserve where participants wear period clothing and practice traditional crafts without modern technological interference.

The facility includes a research library, educational programs for schools, and seasonal events throughout the year, with free entry for local institutions.

Representatives from over 20 countries gather annually at the museum's Tinghöll building for an international Viking assembly.
