Poulsbo Norseman Statue

The impressive Poulsbo Norseman Statue (sometimes called the Poulsbo Viking Statue) is by artist Mark Gale and was unveiled in November of 2012.

The statue sits on the corner of Viking and Lindvig Way -- a bit outside the part of Front Street that most visitors venture down, so you might need to go look for it -- but easy to spot when you're there as it is 12 feet tall and weighs almost 6000lbs!

The Norseman often gets dressed up for various holidays and local events, sometimes having sported sombreros, bunny ears, race bibs, aprons, or giant beer tankards.

I've heard mixed opinions about the statue -- we love it, but there were initally some complaints about the historical inaccuracy of horned helmets and I've met people who think it's "disrespectful" to dress a "proud viking" up in Easter bunny ears.
