Learn to draw a Viking woman with this fun printable.
Viking women were strong and independent members of their society. They were skilled in crafting, such as weaving and embroidery (notice the embroidered clothes in our illustration), and played an important role in providing for their families. They also had the ability to own property and could divorce their husbands if they were unhappy in the marriage. Some Viking women even became warriors and fought alongside men in battles. One famous Viking woman was named Lagertha, who was known for her bravery and leadership in battle. So, it's clear that Viking women were not just wives and mothers, but also significant members of their community who contributed in many ways.
