Dr Tom Birkett is joining the crew of The Sea Stallion

Dr Tom Birkett is joining the crew of The Sea Stallion - the same replica Viking ship that made the crossing from Dublin to Denmark in 2007 - as it sails again this summer, from its home at the Roskilde Viking Ship Museum to the Danish capital. Along the way the 50-strong crew will take part in a variety of heritage events, and experience the conditions faced by the Vikings around 1000 years ago.
Dr Tom Birkett is joining the crew of The Sea Stallion - the same replica Viking ship that made the crossing from Dublin to Denmark in 2007 - as it sails again this summer, from its home at the Roskilde Viking Ship Museum to the Danish capital. Along the way the 50-strong crew will take part in a variety of heritage events, and experience the conditions faced by the Vikings around 1000 years ago.
The Sea Stallion is visiting Copenhagen for the first time, and will join in a series of events at the National Museum of Denmark. The Viking exhibition in the National Museum will travel on to the British Museum in 2014 - where the largest Viking ship discovered will be displayed as part of a blockbuster exhibition in the newly renovated World Conservation and Exhibitions Centre.
The ship's journey can be tracked on the museum's website http://www.vikingeskibsmuseet.dk/en/the-voyage-2013/follow-the-voyage/
