The Reykjavík Maritime Museum is a fascinating spot for maritime enthusiasts and history buffs alike. Established in 2005, the museum showcases Icelandic maritime history from early settlements to the late 20th century through seven engaging exhibitions. One of the highlights is the Coast Guard vessel Óðinn, which played a significant role in the Cod Wars of the 1950s and 1970s. With interactive displays, historical artifacts, and a cozy café overlooking the harbor, this museum offers a fun and educational experience for visitors of all ages.
