The Best Museums in Reykjavik
By Erika Owen/ Iceland/ Reykjavik/ Guide/ TripSavvy/ tripsavvy.com
"Icelanders are proud of their national heritage — and there’s a lot to be proud of. From the original Icelandic Sagas that outline the beginning of Icelandic culture as we know it today to the largest whale exhibition in Europe, the wildlife, history, artwork, and culture of Iceland all deserve their own celebrations.
But where there are very serious museums (like the National Museum of Iceland), there are plenty of museums in Reykjavik that know how to keep it lighthearted (think: the Iceland Phallological Museum). And there really is something for every kind of historian hobbyist.
Maybe we’ve finally found out how locals get through the gloomiest of weather (boy, do they have a lot of it): plenty of museums to keep them entertained on less-than-ideal days. Ahead, a list of the best museums you can find in Reykjavik....."
