What Is Asgard Alaska Building?
Our plan is to build an open-air Viking museum and historical campground. Picture a reconstructed Viking settlement, a great longhouse for special events, and tent sites and Viking turf houses for overnight guests. Every saga has a first chapter, and ours is finding the land. The Roadmap lays out the four phases, from a Land Fund to a working museum and campground.
Take a moment to delve into our vision for the future by visiting the Our Mission page. Then you can meet our founders on About Us.
Every gift goes to the Land Fund, the first step toward an open-air Viking museum and campground in Alaska. Donations are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.

A site has not been chosen, but we are looking in the Matanuska-Susitna Borough, so the museum stays within reach of most Alaskans on the road system. Phase 1 of our Roadmap is raising the Land Fund and finding that land; when we have it, you will read about it here and in the newsletter first.
There is no opening date yet. The Roadmap has four phases, beginning with buying the land, and each milestone is posted there as we reach it.
