So this was an interesting place, and I leaned a lot about the settlement of the island and city , it's history in shipping and fishing . But I thought it was a museum about Vikings.... It's not.

The last room of the museum (upstairs) has a prop mannequin which can only be described as nightmare fuel. I have included a picture but the full horror can only be experienced in the flesh.

Mind you: It’s a museum that shows how fish was caught and processed.
