History Walk through Keldnaland
Welcome to a free history walk through Keldnaland, Thursday, 11 September from 17:30–19:00. Please note that the walk will be conducted in Icelandic. Anna Lísa Guðmundsdóttir, project manager of archaeology at the Reykjavík City Museum, and Salvör Jónsdóttir, urban planner, will lead guests through Keldnaland with a special focus on archaeological and cultural heritage sites. Both have conducted research in the area. Salvör carried out a building survey of Keldur and Keldnaholt in 2022, and Anna Lísa was one of the contributors to the archaeological registration of the same area in 2024. We will meet at the parking lot by the University of Iceland’s Institute for Experimental Pathology at Keldur and walk to the old farmstead at Keldur and beyond, including parts of the Gröf area. The best way to reach Keldur is via Stórhöfði. The walk takes place outdoors and over uneven terrain, so please wear sturdy shoes and dress according to weather.
