Lofotr Viking Museum in Vestvågøy

You're standing at the Lofotr Viking Museum, in the little village of Borg on the island of Vestvågøya, right in the middle of the Lofoten islands. Take a look around. More than a thousand years ago, this landscape was home to a Viking chieftain. Now look up at the hill. That huge building on top is a longhouse. It's eighty-three metres long, nine and a half metres wide and nine metres high. That's a house as long as a decent street.
