CAN I GET AROUND IN A WHEELCHAIR?
The Viking Fortress Trelleborgs roads are gravel but quite stable. However, the terrain at the Viking fortress itself is grass, so it might be tricky to use a wheelchair there. On the gravel road you'll be able to travel safe and sound from the longhouse to the Viking village. There's stairs at the fortress itself, and it's not possible to go to the top of the ringfortress by wheelchair. However, you'll still be able to enjoy the wonderful view of the fortress, and you'll have the possibility to visit the longhouse and Viking village in a wheelchair.
PRAMS AND CHANGING TABLES
It is possible to go around Trelleborg with a pram. Note: at the ring castle itself there is grass and not gravel. You can access our Viking village "Slagløse" by the gravel path as well as our longhouse. There is a changing table by the toilet in the museum shop, which can be used freely when the museum shop is open.
CAN I TAKE PHOTOS AND RECORD VIDEOS?
You are more than welcome to take pictures and film, when you visit Viking Castle Trelleborg. However, you must remember that it must be for private use (e.g. holiday photos, photos you share on your own private accounts on the internet). You can find Vikingeborgen Trelleborg on Instagram (@trelleborgenvikingeborg) or on Facebook (Vikingeborgen Trelleborg).
Besides that, Trelleborg's exhibited objects must not suffer any nuisance, and therefore we recommend, that you do not use flash in the museum exhibition. Please, do not disturb the other museum visitors, when taking photographs.
Professional photography for the purpose of commercial publication can take place after permission from the communications officer.

It is not permitted to fly drones over the Vikingfortress, and a permit is required if you wish to do so. Contact Trelleborg's museum director, Anne-Christine Larsen, acl@natmus.dk or at her phone number: +45 41 20 63 90
