Skógar Museum
A complex of three museums: an outdoor museum featuring farmhouses from different eras of Iceland's history; a folk museum showing off artifacts from daily life, and a technology museum. Interesting to get a feeling what life in southern Iceland was like.
The Settlement Exhibition
The Settlement Exhibition details the history of Iceland's settlement through multimedia and surrounds the foundations of a Viking-aged farmhouse dating to the tenth century.
