We can learn a lot about the pagan religion of Vikings and their ancestors, not only in old books and manuscripts, but in the landscape itself. Sweden in particular is covered in ancient ritual sites which were used by the Norse peoples. Some of them date to the medieval Viking era, while others are much older, yet were still in use during Viking times.
In this film, I travel around Sweden to show you some of the most fascinating and mysterious archaeological religious sites and, through them, help you to understand a bit more about the ancient religion of the Norse peoples and where you can go in Sweden to see it for yourself. We cover everything from barrows and grave-fields, ship burials, stone ship settings, sacrificial trees and god poles, ritual areas such as the treudd and more.
