The Dog – The Viking's Best Friend!
The Dog – The Viking's Best Friend!
A weekend with all the extras for those whose hearts beat for our four-legged friends. The event is organized in collaboration with the Swedish Icelandic Sheepdog Club and Kennel Sangilak.
Herding demonstrations, dog parades, cuddle and petting corners, quiz walks for both humans and dogs, lectures about dogs in the archaeological context and about the Icelandic Sheepdog—and much more. Of course, we also offer guided tours of Birka’s archaeological site and visits to the museum.
