Bed and Breakfasts in L'anse aux Meadows

Leif Ericson and his fellow adventurers stayed only a short while and disappeared into the mists of history, remembered only in Norse sagas. Then in 1960 Norwegian explorer Helge Ingstad discovered the ruins of the settlement. Over the next decade, he and his wife Anne Stine Ingstad, and archaeologists from Parks Canada excavated the site and proved conclusively it was Norse, carbon dating artifacts to the year 1000 A.D. In 1978, it was declared a World Heritage Site by the United Nations, and it is also a National Historic Site.
