This video shows how the Vikings travelled into the Midlands by using the river systems, the monuments they created in the form of longphorts, and other known activity they had in the area such as hoarding silver objects.
These Educational videos were created by the Education Team at the National Museum of Ireland - Archaeology and in partnership with the Midlands Science and the Heritage Offices at Laois, Offaly, Longford and Westmeath County Councils.
