This historical vessel is a testament to the seafaring prowess of the Norse people and provides valuable insights into their culture and way of life.
Built using the clinker method, where overlapping planks are fastened together with iron rivets, the Gokstad ship is an impressive example of Viking shipbuilding techniques.
