Team building at the Viking Ship Museum

An inspiring setting shaped by history and nature

The Viking Ship Museum in Roskilde offers team building in a distinctive historic setting beside Roskilde Fjord. Here, Nordic cultural heritage surrounds you, with views of the fjord and the museum’s world-famous Viking ships. The museum provides a memorable setting for activities and experiences that bring people together and encourage cooperation.

Discover the five original Skuldelev ships, recovered from Roskilde Fjord, in the Viking Ship Hall, and visit the boatyard on Museum Island, the museum’s outdoor harbour area. Here, Viking shipbuilding, voyages and seamanship are brought to life. The historic surroundings create a sense of authenticity and connection, inviting reflection and a closer look at the past. Roskilde Fjord and the open landscape add light, fresh air and tranquillity, leaving room for new perspectives and inspiring conversations.

Active team building on the fjord

The Viking Ship Museum offers sailing on Roskilde Fjord in traditional Nordic wooden boats built using principles rooted in the Viking Age. With oars and sails - just as the Vikings used - cooperation, communication and shared responsibility become a natural part of the experience as the whole group works together to move the boat safely and smoothly through the water.

Team building can also be combined with Viking games and activities ashore, challenging participants to cooperate, think strategically and solve problems together. The maritime surroundings and historical context create an active and memorable experience that strengthens relationships and a sense of community.

Nordic food inspired by the Viking world

Combine your visit and activities with Nordic flavours at Café Knarr, which serves food based on local ingredients and inspired by the Viking Age. You can also add guided tours and stories about Viking crafts, voyages and maritime life, shared among the museum’s original exhibits and working boatyard.
