Powerful reminder of the forces of nature! Really good audio tour and the museum is actually built on top of the ruins of a house that was destroyed in the eruption. Incredibly learning experience! Highly recommended.

Very interesting museum, that the whole family was happy to visit!…

All very informative and a nice setup. Nicely structured and a nice touch with the wheel where you can zoom into history.

If you visit Vestmannaeyjar this is a must. Tells the horrifying story of an eruption in the island in 1973 that lasted for 5 months. This museum is the soul of Vestmannaeyjar.
