On the shore of the fjord have built a Viking Museum, after the discovery of 5 Viking ships submerged in the fjord. The cost of admission to the museum are 100 kr, 80 kr with student ID (about 11 €), and the advantage is that they make guided tours in English, I remember that ours was at 12.

The museum, however I think it's worth, if you are interested in the Viking culture, although the remains of the ships are not in a good condition (one was 20% of what originalmind was). Of course, taking pictures is allowed.
