As in previous years, the Vikings will land in Jork again this year. Several hundred Vikings from many parts of Europe will camp in Jork from May 18th to 21st and, like in the past, offer an extraordinary spectacle.
The Jork Viking Market will take place from May 18th to 21st, 2023. Over 400 Viking traders, craftsmen and fighters from all over Europe pitch their tents around a ring castle made of wood, which was specially built for the Viking market in Jork Neuenschleuse. The visitor can experience how people lived in the period from the 7th to the 11th century and immerse themselves in this special atmosphere.
