Skol! Learn all about the Viking Age with a living history presentation showcasing the Scandinavian heritage claimed by many Minnesota immigrants.
In this living history performance, Minnesotan historian and educator Arn Kind will bring history to life with a realistic portrayal of this mysterious age of Runes, Raids and Sagas. Learn how these Scandinavians came to be excellent traders, craftsmen, ship-builders, inventors and navigators, and how their raids disrupted the power structure of medieval kingdoms, ultimately resulting in the formation of Europe that exists to this day.
Admission is free thanks in part to funding from the Minnesota Arts & Cultural Heritage Legacy fund and is offered by Lake Agassiz Regional Library.
