JORVIK Viking Centre
The JORVIK Viking Centre is a world-renowned museum and visitor attraction in York that stands on the very site where archaeologists discovered the remarkably preserved remains of the Viking-age city. Through its famous "time capsules," visitors are transported back to the year 975 AD, experiencing the sights, sounds, and even the smells of a reconstructed Viking street. The museum showcases rare artifacts unearthed during the Coppergate Excavation, providing a profound and immersive look at the daily lives, craftsmanship, and international connections of the Vikings who once called York their home.
