Birka, a fortified commercial settlement of the Swedes, is located on the small island of Björkö in Lake Mälaren, Sweden. It is situated 30 kilometers west of the current city of Stockholm. This historical site offers a unique insight into the Viking era and the early history of Sweden.

Visiting Birka Today

Today, visitors to Birka can experience a glimpse of the past as a replica of some of the ancient buildings has been reconstructed on the site. This allows visitors to get a sense of what life was like in this historic settlement. The site is accessible by boats from Strängnäs, Härjarö, Stockholm, and Södertälje, making it a convenient destination for those exploring the region.
