Hei hei! A few months ago when I was filming at the new Vikingtidsmuseet , I was invited to the University of Oslo storage facility for Viking artifacts 🤩
I was shown a range of different items, but perhaps the most impressive one was the original serpent head of the Oseberg Viking Ship 🐍
The original head was too fragile to be mounted onto the ship after they excavated it, so a replica was made, and the original was put away in storage.
It’s been there for more than 120 years, and never been on display! So being able to witness it with my own eyes was a true wow moment! 😮
However, a new exhibition recently opened at the Historical Museum in Oslo, including the serpent head, so make sure to pay them a visit Historisk museum
I hope you enjoy these photos 👍
