A small and cute museum full with the rich, Danish, Viking culture that they used to have. The exhibition is full of locally found small goods, from bones to silver emblems. As someone who is very interested in Viking culture and it’s history, I would recommend going here. The shop is also a huge recommendation if you’re looking for cute viking-inspired souvenirs from your trip.

It is really amazing how one can transform such tiny archeological finds into such a marvellous exhibition. The presentation of the artifacts is stunning. It is a true addition to the Vikingship museum in Roskilde and a 'must see' when you are looking for the full picture of the Viking era in this region of Denmark. Great job; thank you so much for your hospitality.

A really interesting museum and great exhibits albeit fairly small. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. The yellow trail is tricky if you have a stroller, probably more so if wet across the field. Highly recommended.

Me and my girlfriend (she is an archeologist) were both impressed by the quality of this little museum. Gave a good understanding of Lejre's history and position in Danish history.

Small but very nicely curated museum with some interactive exhibits and real archeological findings. Also has an outside part to discover remaining sites.

Virkelig spændende museum der er flot istandsat så det virker spændende og interessant for alle aldre. De udstillede genstande er i høj kvalitet. Udenfor kan du se nogle af de markante omrids af store huse og gravhøje. der vidner om områdets betydning. Museumsbutikken er flot men de fleste ting man kan købe har intet med museet eller stedet at gøre og det er synd. Hvad laver svenske produkter, portugisisk krydderi blandt andet i museumsbutikken:-)
