3. Hversdagssafn - Museum of Everyday Life
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 19 reviews
*We happily open our door for groups and enthusiasts all year round outside opening hours. Please leave us message us on FB * Hversdagssafn - museum of everyday life has the main purpose of investigating the mundane and the common, finding the poetry that comes forward when no one is looking. It’s a collection of local voices, memories and story fragments - nostalgic, humorous and thought provoking - curated in various interactive ways. It’s local, as it gives a glimpse to people’s life in the Westfjords, and it’s universal since it touches on the things we all share. Everyday life is a little like dark matter, what happens in between significant moments in life and holds everything together. It’s meeting friends, having dinner, yelling at children, being yelled at, sulking. It’s walking between places, going to work, staying home, worrying, washing up, cutting vegetables. It’s both random and routine. Once you stop and look at it, the beauty of the mundane is revealed.

This building is itself an amazing piece of history. Make sure you visit the top floor! With a section on local fishing, accordion culture in Isafjordur, local plants, boat building tools and even an old dive suit this place is a little gem in a beautiful town of the Westfjords.
