VIKING has partnered with Museums Victoria to sponsor upcoming exhibition, ‘Treasures of the Viking Age: The Galloway Hoard’.
The exhibition is a rare and unique collection of Viking-age mementos, jewellery and heirlooms dating back to the early medieval kingdoms of Britain and Ireland, mainland Europe and as far away as Central Asia.
The items were buried around 900AD and discovered by metal detectorists in 2014.
“We are very pleased to partner with the museum and help bring one of the world’s most extraordinary Viking-age collections to Melbourne,” said Viking ANZ MD, Michelle Black.
“This is a rare and exciting opportunity to connect Viking travel partners with Museums Victoria’s vision to inspire and enrich visitors through knowledge and experiences.”
‘Treasures of the Viking Age: The Galloway Hoard’ opens at the Melbourne Museum tomorrow and will run until 26 Jan 2026.
