The Herring Era Museum

Fodor's Choice

The glorious herring fishing history of Siglufjörður is well preserved in five old harborside buildings at this superb museum. Covering the entire period of the town’s glory days, these beautifully curated exhibition spaces offer a remarkable glimpse into an industry that once generated more than a quarter of the country’s export income. A visit to this museum also gives you free admission to the Folk Music Museum.
