We loved this. The kids had a great time finding the culprit who stole Frida's salt. All the things they could do, it was amazing and so much fun. The grown-ups had just as much fun looking around and joining the kids in the salt mystery. And I think our daughter will try out archery at home now.

Very interesting historic park. We were surprised by the knowledge of "actors" they will answer all your questions. The park is big with different activities over the day. Also, there's a restaurant for a quick break during the visit. Must visit if you are near Ribe.

It was quite good but we expected a wider range of activities which were available with the activity pass. The ones available targeted mainly younger children with an age range of 6 to 12 years. Other than that the Viking Center was beautifully arranged.

Great place to stop and be taken back in time. Very friendly staff and great entertainment for kids to try fighting like Vikings and shoot bow and arrow, wood carvings and coin making.

Clementinum

The Clementinum is a historic complex of buildings in Prague. Until recently the complex hosted the National, University and Technical libraries, the City Library also being located nearby on Mariánské Náměstí. The Technical library and the Municipal library have moved to the Prague National Technical Library at Technická 6 since 2009. It is currently in use as the National Library of the Czech Republic.

Its history dates from the existence of a chapel dedicated to Saint Clement in the 11th century. A Dominican monastery was founded in the medieval period, which was transformed in 1556 to a Jesuit college. In 1622 the Jesuits transferred the library of Charles University to the Klementinum, and the college was merged with the University in 1654. The Jesuits remained until 1773, when the Klementinum was established as an observatory, library, and university by the Empress Maria Theresa of Austria.
