Twenty five kilometres to the north of Húsavík, set in an
idyllic looking series of black and white turf houses, sits a
folk museum showcasing relics of a bygone Iceland era. Focussing
a little more on the 20th century than other museums of this
type, once you pass the wood carving of the limbless nude at the
gate, expect diverse arrays of confectionery wrappers, porcelain
dogs and brightly coloured Icelandic folk art. Curiously, it
also happens to be the site of a Northern Lights Research
Centre. |
