The National Museum of Iceland, located in Reykjavik, is a must-visit for history buffs and curious travelers alike. Established in 1863, this museum houses a fascinating collection of Icelandic artifacts and treasures. From ancient Viking relics to medieval manuscripts, the museum offers a glimpse into the rich and vibrant history of Iceland. One of the highlights of the permanent exhibition is the Valþjófsstaður door, a captivating carving depicting a knight slaying a dragon. So, if you're looking to dive into Iceland's past and uncover its cultural heritage, the National Museum of Iceland is the place to be!
