Viking Age
Warownia Jomsborg (PL)
Warownia Jomsborg is a replica of Medieval Vikings’ gord which is situated in the heart of Warsaw. Visitors can get a complete picture and realistic experience of how everyday life of Slavs and Vikings living in Early Middle Ages looked like.
Originally, Jomsborg was a Vikings’ hamlet, where they settled between VIII-IX century. It is historically significant to Poland, because Jomsborg warriors were fighting as mercenaries for Bolesław Chrobry, the first Polish king. That’s why the main mission of Warownia is to share knowledge about national history.

IMTAL AT 30
Frustration. Uncertainty. Anger. Heartache. 2020 has given us much. We’ve also been harshly reminded that climate change is upon us, that politicians equivocate, that people have opinions, and that murder hornets are a thing. Our industry has been hit particularly hard. Many of us have been let go.
