Vitlycke Museum’s website covers rock carvings in Tanum, including the Vitlycke panel and carvings at Fossum. It says hunting is rarely shown in rock art compared with ships and warriors, and names Vitlycke and Fossum as exceptions. The site also reports that a carving missing for 200 years was found again in late April in Litsleby, after an early-19th-century sketch helped locate it. The museum describes this as the largest discovery in Tanum’s World Heritage rock-carving area in more than 30 years. The find is background, not a date for a visit.
The website lists school programs called “Full-Day on the Bronze Age” and “Half-Day on the Bronze Age,” and says lessons can be booked. The titles describe full-day and half-day sessions. Wikidata lists the museum’s opening as 1976. The material gives no general visitor timetable or visit duration, so there is no stated length for an individual visit. It also gives no ticket price or opening hours.
