Viking Workshops at the Museum of Ceramics: Truso Exhibition

An archaeological exhibition presenting Truso, one of the most important Viking trading settlements in the Baltic Sea basin, has opened in the City History Department. After 400 years of searching, Truso has become a legend of the Baltic—a mysterious sunken city compared to Atlantis or ancient Troy.

The exhibition is accompanied by free workshops, which will take place on December 4, 7 and 8, 2017, from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. After visiting the exhibition, children will make Viking shields based on historical designs, jewelry inspired by beads discovered in Truso, or assemble models of the famous Viking drakkars. Interested groups are asked to register by phone at 75 644-22-00 or by email at poczta@muzeum.boleslawiec.net.

The exhibition “Vikings. Truso—the Legend of the Baltic” was prepared in cooperation with the Archaeological and Historical Museum in Elbląg, the Lusatian Museum in Zgorzelec, and the Serbo-Lusatian Warriors’ Fellowship—Biełoboh, and will be on display until the end of January 2018.
