An area with an exhibition of replicas of finds from Hjortspring Mose and period textiles.
A small sales stall where you can buy books, postcards, T-shirts and caps with the Hjortspring Guild logo.
Finally, there is a kitchen and some tables.
Adjacent to this room and the boat room, there is a toilet with facilities for the disabled, with plenty of space for both a wheelchair and a carer.
Boat hall and workshop
In the boathouse are
- Tilia on display together with our test pieces (segments of the boat in 1:1 scale)
- Pictures and posters describing the building of the boat
- Models of interpretations of ‘Hjortspring boats’
- Various tools used in the construction of Tilia
- A workshop area where we make various accessories and otherwise maintain Tilia
The smithy
Is an older forge we have received / built.
There are two forge heads and 2 anvils, as well as various tools.
The forge is used to make copies of the iron artefacts found in Hjortspring Mose.
Some of our members make (modern) pattern forged knives, so there is also equipment for this
