WElcomE to
the national
museum of
iceland

“Impressive collection of Icelandic artifacts from 1000AD to the present arranged chronologically. […] Spent over 2 hours here - thoroughly enjoyed it. Some of my favourites are the tiny statue of Thor, first Icelandic bible (1584), furniture and clothing.”

“There's plenty to see here. Plan on spending at least three hours. Guided tours are available. I didn't take one, but I learned a lot and was able to go from exhibit to exhibit at my own speed. A must-see museum if you like culture and history.”

“Loved this one. It makes my list of must-do if you are in Reykjavik (and are a history buff). Great stories, artifacts, and information. I would recommend it to any visitor or local.”

“An extremely comprehensive museum containing artifacts from the dawn of civilization in Iceland to current day. I wish we had gone to it earlier in our visit! Allow a good amount of time to go through the museum as there is so much to see.”

“The museum is well worth a visit. Very interesting history. Great start to our Iceland travels.”

“If you are into history and want to learn more about Iceland, this is a great museum to visit. I would allow couple of hours, in the least.”
