JORVIK first opened its doors to the public on Saturday, April 14, 1984. Join Chris Tuckley, Head of Interpretation & Learning at York Archaeology, for an entertaining look back at how this iconic museum and tourist attraction came to be. The lecture incorporates a screening of JORVIK Viking Centre at 40, a brand new documentary film that combines interviews with the original JORVIK project team and archival footage to explore the extraordinary circumstances of JORVIK’s creation.
