Additional Details:
A replica of the boat in which Leif Erikson and his crew of intrepid Norwegian Vikings sailed the uncharted Atlantic Ocean to America in 997. This replica was built in Bergen, Norway in 1926 and was sailed across the Atlantic, through the St. Lawrence River and up the Great lakes, by a crew of twentieth century Norwegian Vikings. It rests in Leif Erikson Park overlooking Lake Superior, with Duluth's unique Aerial Lift Bridge to be seen in the background
