Bustarfell

Bustarfell, a manor farm through the ages, with a long history. The farm has been in the same family since 1532. This turf house with red gables and grass–grown roof is one of the oldest and best preserved farms of its kind in Iceland. The house preserves much history about Iceland and its people and was lived in until 1966. Now there is a museum. A visit to the Museum at Bustarfell is a journey through the history of farming and changes in lifestyle from the beginning of the 18th century to the mid–20th century.
