Where you'll be getting married

The longhouse is a reconstruction of one of the 31 houses that archaeologists have found at Trelleborg. Step inside this time capsule, which will transport you back to the Viking Age 1,000 years ago, when the kingdom of Denmark had just been unified and the German emperor to the south was posing a threat. Here, the Vikings kept themselves ready for battle.
