Episode 675 - LAUFÁS

Today, RÚV English Radio at Laufás, in Eyjafjörður.

The turf-clad timber building at Laufás (https://www.minjasafnid.is/en/moya/page/laufas_heritage) sits at the centre of a site full of history. Laufás is mentioned in historical records soon after the settlement of Iceland in 874.

Darren ducked down for a trip into the low-roofed building!

Laufás opens for general booking again next year, but is always open for prebooked groups - contact [e-mail] for details.
