The Lofotr Viking Museum is a historical museum based on a reconstruction and archaeological excavation of a Viking chieftain's village in the North Norwegian archipelago of Lofoten, Norway. It is located in the hamlet of Borg, near Bøstad, Vestvågøy.

The museum includes a full reconstruction of an 83-meter long chieftain's house (the largest ever found in Norway), a blacksmith's forge, two ships and their boathouses, and various re-enactments intended to immerse the visitor in life at the time of the Vikings.

In September 2006, a planned enlargement of Lofotr was postponed due to archeological finds of 2000 year old cooking sites and pole holes at the site ((Norwegian)).
