One of the world's most significant discoveries from the Viking Age was made in 1904 just outside Tønsberg; namely the discovery of the now-famous Oseberg ship. The ship is 21.5 meters long. Oseberg Vikingarv Tønsberg has built an archaeological replica of this ship. During construction, only tools and building methods identical to those used in the construction of the original ship in the Viking Age were employed. You can visit the copy of the Oseberg ship at Vikingodden in the harbour of Tønsberg. The original ship is exhibited at the Viking Ship Museum on Bygdøy in Oslo. The Klåstad ship Oseberg Viking Heritage, Tønsberg has built a replica of another famous Viking find: the Klåstad ship. Here too, original methods and tools were used during construction. This original ship is also located at the Slottsfjellsmuseet in Tønsberg. In 2021, the construction of an archaeological replica of the Gokstad ship also began. The construction will take place both at Vikingodden in Tønsberg and at the Whaling Monument in Sandefjord. Here you will have the opportunity to follow the construction.

How long Tønsberg has been a port city is uncertain, but it is fairly certain that the city has its origins in the port. This means that the harbor may be older than the town itself. In other words, the history of the harbor is long and has shaped the development of the town of Tønsberg. From the city's beginnings in 871 to the present day, the development of the port has been synonymous with the development of the city. Tønsberg was one of three Hanseatic cities in Norway. The others were Bergen and Oslo. In addition to leather goods, skins, butter and herring, wood was the most important export good. The imports were grain and flour from Denmark, wheat, honey and clothing from England and wine and tropical fruit from France. Source: www.tonsbergsjo.no/
