Visit the birthplace of Jón Sigurðsson
Hrafnseyri is the birthplace of ‘Iceland’s pride; its shield and its sword’, Jón Sigurðsson. A museum dedicated to this hero of the Icelandic battle for independence was opened in Hrafnseyri in 1980. The museum features a recreated turf house modelled after the one that Jón grew up in. There is also an old church dating to 1886.
