Technical Museum of East Iceland

Join us in the Old Mechanical Shop for a journey through history and innovation at our exhibition „Búðareyri – stories of transformation“. The exhibition tells us the history of Búðareyri, the part of Seyðisfjörður that was hit by a major landslide in December 2020. On the exhibition we combine innovative multimedia solutions with traditional technology offering a rich bilingual experience for visitors of all ages.

In the Harbour garden you can discover the rich history of women in Seyðisfjörður around 1900 at our outdoor exhibition „Working Women“. The exhibition explores the range of different jobs held by women and their significant economic contributions to society during this immense period of change in Iceland from 1880 to 1920.
