How do you build a viking longhouse?
Only a few Vikings lived in towns. Most of them lived in the country in Longhouses. The longhouse had usually one large room. The walls were made of wood, in areas where it was plentiful, and the roof was covered with turf. Place vertical poles in the ground along the lines that are to be the walls. These poles should have vertical grooves for boards that make up the walls. The roof could be similar, covered with birch bark and then turf. In Iceland where there were few trees the walls were made of peat.
