Fam­ily fun on Mu­seum Day - Free ad­mis­sion!

Family fun on Museum Day - Free admission!

We especially welcome children and their families to explore the Settlement Exhibition in Aðalstræti this Museum Day – come join the fun!

Baktus the Town Centre Cat is a regular visitor at The Settlement Exhibition – he stops by almost every day! Now you can follow his pawsteps and explore the exhibition through his curious eyes. Over 1,000 years ago, Icelanders wrote their texts using runes – and you can still find runes here at the Settlement Exhibition today! But there’s more to it. You’ll need to piece them together, form words and sentences, and then translate them all! Do you think you're up for the challenge? Admission is free to celebrate International Museum Day!
