Dive into the world of Viking shipbuilding with our latest documentary: "Conquering Viking Seas: The Incredible Story of Longship Construction". Witness the evolution of more than 6,000 years of technical progression, encapsulated in the masterful design and structure of these legendary vessels.
The Viking longship was no accident. Born from the hardy spirit of its creators, it was the embodiment of their seafaring aspirations. Shaped not by written blueprints but by the personalities of those who built and used them, these ships were marvels of speed, agility, and adaptability.
Join us on a journey from the jagged fjords of Norway to Shetland's sandy alcoves and Iceland's volcanic shores. Discover how the harsh and unpredictable North Atlantic coastline influenced the design of these swift, menacing ships that enabled the Vikings to conquer diverse shores and waterways from the 8th to the 11th centuries.
This documentary is not just about a ship; it's about a culture, its interaction with its environment, and the ingenuity that resulted. Experience the Viking age as never before and learn about the expansive trade networks they created, their raiding successes, and the pivotal role their longships played in these endeavors.
