Runestones and Ravning Bridge – Viking History
This tour follows the footsteps of Harald Bluetooth and Gorm the Old; the first Danish kings.
The runic stones in Jelling, a UNESCO Heritage Site, is the natural starting point for this tour. From there we drive to the river valley of Vejle River. Here we see the remains of the Ravning bridge; for centuries a mystery for many historians. For what purpose was this unique wooden bridge built?
After visiting the remarkable Viking historical site we visit another runic stone telling about Queen Thyra, the wife of Gorm the Old and we end our tour at the Klebæk Mounds, where a 45 meter long shipsetting from the Viking period surrounds 2 bronze mounds.
The tour requires that the group has a car or bus available. This is for the group to arrange or can be booked by Guide Service Denmark. -

Jelling - a guided tour
A guided tour in Jelling is a trip back in time and history. Jelling is home to the Jelling Stone, which is said to be Denmark's baptismal certificate and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. In fact, there are two runic stones that Harald Bluetooth raised to remember his parents King Gorm the Old and Queen Thyra. Here, Denmark is described for the first time as a unified country. Therefore, we consider the stones to be Denmark's baptismal certificate.
Right next to the runic stones is the museum Kongernes Jelling, Royal Jelling, a museum that is part of our National Museum. The museum has a very exciting and modern exhibition that tells history with interactive screens. In Jelling there is an obvious focus on Viking history. Go exploring – first on a guided tour, and then on your own in the museum.
Not far from Jelling you find Bindeballe Købmandsgård, an old grocery shop, the Bronze Age burial place of the Egtved girl, the Ravning bridge, Randbøldal which is a beautiful heath area and there are furthermore many stories of beautiful nature and the Ice Age in the Vejle river valley. You can spend a few or many hours - in either case it will be a pleasure to the eye and will entail entertaining stories.
