A museum that traces the history of the city and the fjord through various objects and works of art

The museum traces the history of the town and the fjord through various objects and works of art. Temporary exhibitions are also organised in the summer on various themes such as historical walks, a singing evening in the museum church, a market day in Laufás, Christmas preparations in Laufás, etc. The museum's small church with walls blackened by tar plaster (the oldest in the town) also hosts the Summer Nights Singing Festival.

A small museum in Akureyri but for its relatively small size, this museum is able to successfully inform and educate, in my view. The museum itself was laid out in a logical, easy to follow manner, showcasing what life in Akureyri was like in the past. Exhibits have concise, bilingual explainers both in Icelandic and also English. There’s complimentary coffee too, near the entrance. Worth a short visit if you’re ever in the Gamla Akureyri area!
