Shetland Museum and Archives goes Viking for the day, with particular emphasis on the Norse elements of the collections.
Talks, workshops and re-enactments will appeal to all the family. A Viking themed meal will be held in Hay’s Dock Café Restaurant in the evening; illustrating the best of contemporary cuisine with a Nordic twist, presided over by the Lerwick Up-Helly-Aa Guizer Jarl in his role as King Sweyn Forkbeard.
An event by Shetland Amenity Trust as part of Scotland’s Year of History, Heritage and Archaeology 2017.
