Viking Village Film Set

Iceland’s Viking Village gives visitors the thrill of time-travelling to a replica of a settlement that would have been common in the first century along the southern coast of Iceland. It’s not a common stop on tours of Iceland’s Ring Road.

The Viking Village Film Set is a replica of a traditional Viking settlement on the Stokksnes Peninsula that was originally constructed as a film set. It is now a popular tourist attraction that you can add to your Icelandic trip itinerary. 

The village is nestled at the foot of Vestrahorn Mountain near the charming fishing town of Hofn in the Hornafjordur Fjord. It was built for a film that ended up never being made, but has since been used in multiple productions, such as for the Netflix series “The Witcher: Blood Origin.” Today, it attracts Viking enthusiasts and visitors who want to go back in time to experience Iceland’s rich past.
