Interesting Views (At Least, I Think So)

The 8th episode of Vikings was about the sacrifices at the Hall of the Gods in Uppsala, which happened every nine years.  The stone building on the right is the Old Town Uppsala (Gamla Uppsala) Cathedral that was built on the site of the Hall of the Gods; the red building at left is the bell tower.
