Why Did Paris Pay Ragnar in Silver #history #vikings

In 845 AD, the Viking leader Ragnar Lodbrok sailed up the Seine and launched one of the most famous raids of the Viking Age.

Facing Ragnar’s army during the Siege of Paris, the Frankish king Charles the Bald made a shocking decision — he paid a massive ransom in silver to make the Vikings leave.

This raid became one of the most legendary Viking attacks in medieval Europe.
