THE VIKING TOWN OF BIRKA

Birka in lake Mälaren in Sweden existed from mid 700s until 975 when the town was abandoned. In 830 the missionary Ansgar came here to try to Christian the Swedes. Today there is a museum at Birka. Unesco World Heritage site.

Never stop these videos, Brother. They do not need a massive amount of views to be inspirational and informative. Absolutely amazing. Thank you for sharing things about the world that little would see or know of.

Great! Thank you! :) Did you see the one about Rune stones too

[@Tristaene]

@@expeditionhistoria I'll be sure to check it out, as well as subscribe and view many more and any new ones you come out with! I've always been fascinated with Norse viking culture, and the like- It's an era that values and cultures that I wished were held to today. Thanks again!

Visited Birka in Summer 2021 and it was warm and sunny until we got to where the “lookout” was and then Thor made an appearance with thunder, lightning and heavy rain. By the time we went to wait for the boat back to Stockholm the sun had returned and there was a rainbow. We were thoroughly wet and had seen many frogs and tadpoles on the way back to through the Viking Burial Ground on the way to the Viking Village. There weren’t any volunteers though.
