Icelandic National Museum - THOR!

Góðan daginn,

after finally arriving back in Reykjavik we decided to visit the icelandic national museum.

Actually we were expecting big stuff! We all know about Vikings and their history. Of course they landed here and had all their nordic gods. 

 Well we found Thor, the god of thunder! Yes directly in the beginning of the exhibition we found him! It was amazingly tiny !


 Even his hammer was as big as a necklace! It was amazing to see these two items, but I thought it would be bigger! Hollywood tricked me, again!
 Anyway, we saw a lot of cool items in the museum, old drinking horns, swards, speeds, jewelry ...
 ....their armor ...

 ....helmets...
 ...some ship pieces...
 ...some children toy masks haha....


.... one of their houses and some viking ship design.
 And here the compare, I knew I was taller than Thor!
If you are interested in Viking history or at least some items they used 2000 hers ago just go there and check it out. I liked it a lot! At least because of Thor!
