Roskilde
The trains are free on the first sunday of the month, so we went to Roskilde.
We had some guidebooks

But we were still the least informed tourists ever:
“Hey look, a Viking castle!”
“That’s not a Viking castle”
“Yeah, it’s a church!”
“No, it’s a castle, just not a Viking castle”
“How do you know? I bet it is.”
“Because the Vikings didn’t built castles, they lived in straw huts”
“Why is it here then”
“Because someone else who’s lived here in the last 1000 years built it”

Icy harbour

Viking boat found in the bottom of the harbour, partially reconstructed
