    This is one of the must visit museum in Iceland, the museum tells the story of how the citizens of Heimaey batteled nature when the island was transform was transformed from a peaceful and quiet island to a active catastrophe scene when the volcano Eldfell became active. The museum is very visual and gives you a good idea about the devastating consequences of the eruption and what forces the locals where fighting against, and the scares are still very visible in the city. The café, located on the second floor servers what i would say is a standard café menu and the the coffee is very likely the best you can get on the whole island

    מוזיאון המתעד ומציג בצורה אינטראקטיבית התפרצות של הר הגעש ב 23.01.1973 התפרצות זו שנמשכה 5 חודשים כיסתה כ 400 בתים ועסקים כאשר לבה ואפר מכסים כ 2.5 קמ"ר. ומותירה למעלה מ 5000 איש ללא קורת גג .תושבי האזור נמלטו ליבשת והיה חשש גדול שהאי לא יוכל להיות מיושב לאחר ההתפרצות. ליד הר הגעש שהתפרץ נוצר הר געש חדש אלדפל בגובה של 220 מ' .

    Ένα μουσείο αφιερωμένο στη δύναμη του ηφαιστείου. Καλύπτει ένα σπίτι που σκεπάστηκε από το ηφαίστειο. Το Ακροτήρι στην Σαντορίνη είναι καλύτερο.

    $2300 Krona and well worth the visit. All about the eruption on the island and the museum was built around an excavated home buried during the eruption. They provide an audio set that guides you through the exhibits. Very interesting! And great espresso in the upstairs cafe!
