Summer 2023
Meet a Viking at the award-winning JORVIK Viking Centre!
Take the little ones to discover York’s Viking legacy this summer. Hop aboard a time capsule to 10th century York, and take in the sights, sounds and even the smells – including rotting fish and cabbages – of the Viking Age city. There’s even one Viking to spot on the toilet!
Dig deeper into the Viking story of York by getting close-up with a rare collection of 1,000-year-old-artefacts whilst talking to friendly Viking hosts. Did Vikings have summer holidays? Or go on trips to the beach? Chat to the Vikings of Coppergate to find out more!
Silverdale Hoard
If you were a Viking going into battle and needed to hide your silver, what would you do? Bury it!
Uncover one of the largest ever found in the UK – the Silverdale Hoard at JORVIK Viking Centre. How many pieces of silver can you count when you visit?
