On the 26th February 2014 the Icelandic TV station "Stöð 2" came and visited us. This is the outcome, 30 minutes TV show. I am sorry there are no texts, but you will be able to see the place and meet us, the staff at Snorrastofa.
The show begins with our Reykholt's church vicar Sr.Geir Waage walking around with Kristján Már Unnarsson showing him the place and telling the audience about the site and Snorri Sturluson himself.
Hope you enjoy :)
My name is Sigrun Guttormsdóttir Þormar. I live inBorgarfjord west Iceland, where I work as a project leader at the cultural medieval center Snorrastofa in Reykholt. For those that don't know, Reykholt was the home of Snorri Sturluson, medieval writer and poet whom lived in Reykholt from 1206 to 1241. He was the author of the Edda, Heimskringla (History of the kings of Norway) and Egils Saga Skallagrimsson. For me Snorri is the most amazing employer whom I proudly serve and constantly present in my every day life! He is absolutely still going strong at 835 years of age. Please come and visit us at www.snorrastofa.is. We are open all weekdays during the winter and all days during summer. We have an exhibition about Snorri Sturluson and offer lectures for groups. Hope to see you soon :)
