The Vikings were well known sea raiders and farmers. During their time in Britain York (or Jorvik!) became a major Viking settlement.
The Jorvik Viking Centre recreates the sites, sounds (and smells!) of Viking times. Learn how they lived and see how the city looked then!
These special songs will definitely get you in the Viking mood!

York, the most important city in the North of England was invaded by Vikings from the late 8th to the mid-11th century. The Jorvik Centre demonstrates this with some great historic findings and exhibitions. During their stay they built a small city where Jorvik Viking Centre is just on the very site.
