The Vikings of Bjornstad” is a living history and educational nonprofit corporation, concentrating on the Viking era, usually defined as 793 AD to 1066 AD. Bjornstad works with educational institutions, Scandinavian and Scottish heritage groups to provide a balanced view of one of history’s most fascinating periods and cultures. Bjornstad has been filmed twice for History Channel productions and has provided extras, weaponry, clothing and props for several independent film projects. Our members provided authentic weapon sound effects for How to Train Your Dragon and we’ve provided historic authenticity consulting for Hammer of the Gods, a British Viking movie released in 2013.
