— Swedish title: “Vikingarnas sista resa” —
Nearly 1,000 years ago, the Vikings left Scandinavia and settled across Europe – giving their name to Normandy along the way – before their Norman descendants seized the English throne at the Battle of Hastings in 1066. But what do we really know about them?
This extraordinary series tells the story of Scandinavian warriors from their origins in the 6th century to the Norman conquest of England in 1066. Why did they decide to leave Denmark and travel across Europe?
Climate change in Scandinavia, land ownership rights and the transition to sailing ships were just some of the reasons that made the Vikings embark on the European invasion, where they attacked monasteries and villages before trading brutality for diplomacy.
Most people see Vikings as violent raiders, but they did much more than that. Gain insight into the changes in their environment and society that drove them to leave Scandinavia to become pirates. Experts, research and dramatizations show us the world of the Vikings. We find out why they left Scandinavia, the traces they left around the world and if they were really as brutal as the myths claim.
In the documentary series we get an insight into the history of the Vikings that is not particularly well known outside the academic world. It is a story of a long, dangerous and transformative journey that not only changed people, but also politics, trade, religion and entire societies. The series digs deeper and gives an insight into who the Vikings really were, how they changed the world and how the Nordics converted to Christianity.
With the help of dramatic recreations and CGI, a group of leading experts examine their actions and explain how cultural integration and the influence of Christianity allowed the Vikings to play a pivotal role in transforming Europe into what it is today. By combining expert analysis with compelling drama, “The Last Journey of the Vikings” tells a new and often surprising story about this complex people.
