Glaumbær, Iceland

An 18th century turf farm featuring early Icelandic building techniques. The farm buildings have been nicely restored and now house the folk museum. Here you can see furniture, kitchen utensils, costumes, instruments and blacksmith tools from this bygone era. Furthermore, Glaumbær is the burial site of Snorri Þorfinnsson, the first European born in North America (in 1003). Þorfinnsson lived at Glaumbær after his parents returned to their native Iceland. Glaumbær is located outside Varmahlið.
