Dear friends!

Please help me!...

I am looking for the web-site of VIKING MUSEUM in stockholm.

Maybe it has another name? And it is called "Viking museum" just for tourists?

Thank you for any information!...

I have not heard about a viking museum in Stockholm. Historiska museet has a permanent viking exhibition though. Two other historical/cultural museums are Nordiska museet and Vasamuseet, but both are about more recent history. Historiska museet deals with "Swedish" (as there was no "Sweden" back then) history up until the 16th century.

thank you !!!!

i suppose it is Historika.

and one more question... maybe you could tell me what does this sign mean:

"Unna lät resa denna sten efter sonen sin Östen, som dog i dopkläder, gud hjälpe själen hans"

It is really very important for me.

You're welcome!

The text means, roughly: "Unna let raise this stone for [his/her] son Östen, who died in baptizing clothes, god help his soul"

I would think you would mean Birka? That's the Viking city...

I don't think it's been built yet. I know there's one in the works.
