Episode 719 - SJÓMINJASAFN AUSTURLANDS / EAST ICELAND MARITIME MUSEUM, ESKIFJÖRÐUR

Today, RÚV English Radio is in Eskifjörður, in east Iceland.

The East Iceland Maritime Museum (https://www.east.is/en/service/maritime-museum) explains the history of fisheries and the importance of the sea in east Iceland, but despite its name, that's not all you'll find in the house.

Darren met once again with Árni Pétur Árnason, to see all three parts of the fascinating building.

Again, the museum is open outside of the summer season by appointment - email [email protected]
