The main exhibition Fish & folk - 150 years of fisheries covers the history of fishing in Iceland, from the time when rowing boats gave way to large fishing vessels in the late 19th century, through to the 21st century. This complex story is told from the perspective of the country's largest fishing town, Reykjavík. The setting at the Maritime Museum at Grandagarður is appropriate, as the museum building used to house a thriving fish processing plant. Accessibility for people with disabilities is good at the museum, especially at the entrance on the Grandagarður side. There is an elevator between the floors. Bus route 14 stops near the entrance to the museum on the Grandagarður side.
