Hvorfor du kan stole på innholdet vårt
Guide to Iceland er Islands mest brukte reiseplattform og hjelper millioner av besøkende hvert år. Tekstene våre er skrevet og sjekket av folk som bor her og kjenner landet ut og inn. Derfor kan du alltid regne med ærlige, oppdaterte og pålitelige reisetips.
Hafnarhús has six galleries, each of them very different. You will be able to find the works of famous artists and new up-and-comers; of locals and the internationally known; and the pieces reflect a wide array of different styles.
The exhibitions at Hafnarhús change regularly, meaning returning visitors will likely find new displays on repeat trips to Iceland. The form of art usually displayed here, however, is painting, unlike at the other outlets of the Reykjavík Art Museum, which tend to focus more on sculpture.
You can enter Hafnarhús for free with a Reykjavík City Card.
