BUSTARFELL OPEN-AIR MUSEUM

Museums
5/5
1 review

The old Bustarfell peat farm (several lined buildings), well preserved, is one of Iceland's most beautiful folk museums. The oldest part of the farm dates back to 1770. Easily recognizable by its red-painted gables, it is made up of 6 small houses connected between them by the stone insulation mudas and covered with peat roofs. Coffee on the spot. Well-marked access from Highway 85 to the southwest of Vopnafjörður.

This brand-new contemporary art museum in Djúpivogur features a collection of works by Icelandic artist Sigurður Guðmundsson, the artist behind the dozen eggs you can admire along the bay, just a few minutes away by car (or a twenty-minute walk). You can also find other works by international artists. An original and atypical visit to make if you're in the area. Don't hesitate to follow their news on their Facebook page.

SAENAUTASEL

Ecomuseum

Only accessible by 4×4, as you have to take the F907, which is quite a distance from the main road, this wild and authentic place is well worth a visit! This traditional peat-roofed farmhouse dates back to 1843. Abandoned since 1945, the farmhouse was rebuilt in 1992, allowing visitors to appreciate the houses as they were in the mid-19th century. Inspiring and authentic, it was the inspiration for Nobel Prize-winning writer Halldór Laxness. Here, you can also camp out, enjoy a good meal or a hot drink in addition to your visit.
