Summary

Description
English: The Oseberg Ship in the Viking Ship Museum in Oslo (Vikingskipshuset). This boat, unearthed in 1904, was built between 815 and 820 and was used as a burial boat for a high-ranking woman who died in 834. The body lay in a wooden burial chamber placed on the deck. Around the body were discovered numerous wooden, leather and textile objects. The boat, 22 m long, is made of oak wood. It featured 30 rowers and was not a boat built for the high seas. The museum presents three very well preserved Viking ships, as well as objects, which were discovered in three burial mounds near the Oslo Fjord.
Français : Le bateau d'Oseberg dans le musée des Bateaux vikings à Oslo (Vikingskipshuset).

Ce bateau, mis au jour en 1904, a été construit entre 815 et 820 et a été utilisé comme bateau funéraire pour une femme de haut rang qui est morte en 834. Le corps se trouvait dans une chambre funéraire en bois placée sur le pont. Autour du corps ont été découverts de nombreux objets en bois, cuir et textiles.

Le bateau, long de 22 m, est en bois de chêne. Il comportait 30 rameurs et n'était pas un bateau construit pour la haute mer. Le musée présente trois bateaux vikings, très bien conservés, ainsi que des objets, qui ont été découverts dans trois tertres funéraires près du fjord d'Oslo.
