The original Sun Chariot was found in Trundholm Mose in 1902 and dates from the Bronze Age, around 1400 BC.
The Sun Chariot tells the story of Bronze Age religion and what people believed in during the Bronze Age more than 3,000 years ago.
It was believed that a divine horse pulled the sun across the sky during the day and helped the sun through the darkness of the underworld at night.
The Sun Chariot was used in Bronze Age rituals in such a way that Bronze Age priests could show the movement of the sun across the sky by driving the Sun Chariot forward.
The Sun Disc is decorated with spirals and tells us that the Sun Chariot is of Nordic origin and the spiral is a symbol of the sun's journey up and down.

The sculpture can be experienced in our own Gallery at Valdemarsvej 7, 5500 Middelfart.
