This is the best place to go to soak up knowledge of the Icelandic nation. Educate yourself on folk customs, look at old photographs and prints, see artefacts such as the first Icelandic Bible and the chess board used by Bobby Fischer and Boris Spassky in the 1972 World Chess Championship, hang in the library, and explore the dense collection which spans over 1000 years of Icelandic history and culture. We promise it’s not a boring place to go.
