Havhingsten fra Glendalough: Journeys end


After six weeks at sea, the crew finally pulled into Dublin, just in time for a 'cultural event'. Danish TV reported on the occaision but didn't go into great details. This page at the BBC reports on the matter also.

Son the ship will be lifted from the water and placed into the Irish National Museum. The idea is the ship will remain in Dublin until next year when it will be sailed back to Denmark again. Since there are no 'cultural events' planned, hopefully next year the ship can attempt a crossing of the North Sea under her own sail... One can only hope.
