The Legendary Lost Viking Fortress - Jomsborg

Jomsborg was described as one of the greatest strongholds of the Viking Age. But no trace of it has ever been found — until now.

Was it just a legend from the Jomsvikinga Saga, or could it have been the Viking Atlantis of the Baltic Sea? This episode explores Viking history, archaeology, and myth — from medieval chronicles to new excavations on Wolin Island. Discover how recent archaeological findings, combined with the old sagas, shed light on one of the most mysterious fortresses in Norse history.
