Sænautasel, a historic farm in East Iceland, was inhabited from 1843-1943 and is now open to visitors during the summer. Rumored to have inspired Halldór Laxness's novel "Independent People," this turf building offers guided tours and traditional refreshments. Situated in the highland of Jökuldalsheiði, Sænautasel provides a glimpse into earlier Icelandic generations and their way of life.
