Tapping into the history of Colchester
Colchester is known for being one of the oldest recorded towns in the UK, with a rich history we have seen a lot of visitors pass through, from Romans and Vikings to Tudors and Victorians.
The Vikings invaded Colchester in 886 AD until 917AD when the Saxon King Edward the Elder drove them out. Colchester Castle is now home to an authentic Viking axe that was found in the river Colne, this object may indicate an offering to a god or perhaps an area of conflict.
At Valhalla Lanes, we are authentic and rich in our knowledge of Vikings and all things axe-throwing
