Frequently asked questions about Myklebust Farm (FAQ)
Where is Myklebust Farm?
Myklebust Farm is located at Myklebustvegen 4, 6770 Nordfjordeid, in Western Norway. You can find us on Google Maps — there is parking available on site.
What is the Viking burial mound?
The burial mound at Myklebust Farm is one of Norway’s most significant Viking historical sites. It is the final resting place of King Audbjørn, a powerful Viking king who ruled the Firda Kingdom. When he died around 870 AD, his ship — over 30 metres long and the largest Viking ship ever discovered in the world — was burned as part of a spectacular funeral pyre. The mound was excavated in 1874 and the find put Nordfjordeid on the map of world history. If you book the Myklebust Viking Adventure, you’ll have the opportunity to walk on a real burial mound from the Viking Age.

We have two options. The Open Farm ticket costs 95/175 NOK per person and gives you a relaxed day on the farm, including a short film about the Viking history of the farm and one free coffee or tea for every adult in the café.
