Haugar - Royal Viking Mounds, Tønsberg |
Norway Attractions and Hotels
Region Vestfold presents a wide range of historical
evidence dating from the Viking era, especially Viking mounds that carry the
pattern of brave fights and various legends. One of these representations of
the Viking culture is located at Haugar, the place where three princes (all
brothers and sons of the King of Trøndelagen) died during a battle and were
buried. As a result, in 1971, a monument was constructed here, to commemorate
them and their brave actions.
