Solvang Viking Museum - 2 Replica Viking Ships on View reposted by Ruth Paget

Vacationers looking for an overnight recharge trip with a cultural outing to write about might be interested in the Solvang Viking Museum on California’s Central Coast.

One of the current exhibitions is about Viking ships.  Two reproduction ships the Snorri and Godfried are on view.

There is a weapons exhibit for lovers of Norse myths as well.

Minecraft players would probably find the whole town interesting and the Viking restaurants.

Viking Tours for Kids in Solvang, California

Viking Tours for Kids in Solvang, California

Seriously cute, fine, and educational scavenger hunt and meal for kids in Danish settlement Solvang, California.

Solvang’s architecture is Danish so this kids’ tour has an almost fantasy element to it except that the town was really built by Danish settlers.

Information about the kids’ tour and ticket purchase follow:

Looks like fun!
