Reconstructed Viking Ships

Saga Oseberg is an exact replica of the early-ninth-century Oseberg ship, found in a burial mound in near Tønsberg in Vestfold, Norway. It is one of the best preserved Viking ships (virtually complete), and has a length of almost 22 meters. It was reconstructed in 2006, in a cooperation between the Viking Ship museums in Oslo and Roskilde. For more information see http://www.osebergvikingskip.no/eng/documents/reconstruction.html
