Seeing the Viking Age being revived in the style it used to be at Bork Vikingehavn is a great experience - not only for fans and adorer of this genre like I am one.

Enter through the gateway to Bork Vikingehavn and step into a time when you forget everything else - back to a time of preparing for raids while worshipping the old Norse gods!

This image features a traditional thatched-roof structure, which appears to be a storage shed or a small rustic building. It is constructed with exposed wooden beams and has a thick, sloped thatch roof that extends down close to the ground on one side, where it covers a large stack of firewood. The walls of the building are plastered with a rough material, giving it a rustic look. The setting appears to be rural, with a gravel ground in the forefront, a wooden fence visible in the background to the left, and some barren trees, possibly indicating the capture of the image in late autumn or winter. This type of building is characteristic of historical or rural settings and is often used for storing tools, wood, or other farm supplies.
This image features a scene that appears to be a reconstruction or preservation of an ancient village or historical settlement. There are multiple buildings with thatched roofs, supported by wooden structures. These buildings have wattle and daub walls, typical of traditional construction methods used in various historical periods. The pathway is a gravel trail leading towards and through the middle of the settlement, flanked by green grass. There's also a wooden fence enclosing one of the sections, possibly for livestock or as part of the gardening area. The sky is overcast, suggesting a cool or cloudy day. This setting is likely part of a historical park or an open-air museum aimed at educating visitors about historical lifestyles and building techniques.
The image shows a rural setting featuring three traditional structures with thatched roofs. The buildings appear to be of historical or cultural significance, possibly representing an open-air museum or a preserved historical site. Each building sports a vibrant blue trim with red accents and large wooden beams structured vertically along the walls. The roofs are topped with what looks like Viking-style ornaments, indicating a possible Scandinavian or Northern European origin. A gravel path leads through the scene, adding to the serene and rustic feel of the location. The sky is overcast, suggesting a cool or damp climate.

Hel (Old Norse Hel, “Hidden”) is a giantess and/or goddess who rules over the identically-named Hel, the underworld where many of the dead dwell. Her name’s meaning of “Hidden” surely has to do with the underworld and the dead being “hidden” or buried beneath the ground.
According to the thirteenth-century Icelandic scholar Snorri Sturluson, Hel is the daughter of Loki and the giantess Angrboda (Old Norse Angrboða, “Anguish-boding”), and therefore the sister of the wolf Fenrir and the world serpent, Jormungand. This makes her part of a highly dangerous and disreputable family.

The image features a wooden sculpture of a figure with a striking and somewhat stylized design. The sculpture has a large, elongated head with detailed facial features including eyes, a nose, and a mouth etched into the wood. The head is adorned with multiple protruding elements that resemble spikes or nails, creating a crown-like effect. The body of the sculpture is slender and elongated, with arms flat against its sides, also carved with details that suggest clothing or armor. The background shows a natural, outdoor setting with a clear sky and some clouds, along with grass and distant trees, indicating that the sculpture is placed in an open landscape. The art style seems rustic and possibly inspired by tribal or ancient artwork, giving it a powerful and evocative presence.

C'est l'heure de la toilette ! Ils sont en train de monter un échafaudage tout autour de la statue de Leifur Eriksson, le navigateur viking qui a découvert l'Amérique 500 ans avant Christophe Colomb. Durant ce temps de rénovation/restauration, je ne serais pas surpris que sur le contreplaqué figure des photos grandeur nature de l'œuvre sur les quatre côtés.

Des ouvriers sont en train de visser des plaques de bois sur un échafaudage métallique avec des filets de sécurité vert et qui va enfermer quelques temps une statue. Au pied de cet ensemble, des plots de sécurité orange et du ruban à balise ont été déployés pour former un périmètre de sûreté, notamment à l'attention des touristes. Derrière, une grande église : la Hallgrimskirkja. Son horloge affiche 18h35.
