Introducing Larvik
Larvik is one of the largest towns along Norway’s south coast. Although it has some good museums, its main attractions are Norway’s most accessible excavations from the Viking era. The town’s main historical claim to fame is as the home town of Thor Heyerdahl, one of Norway’s premier explorers.
