Eldheimar Volcano Museum in Vestmannaeyjar in Reykjavik - My Guide Reykjavik
The Eldheimar Volcano Museum focuses on the 1973 eruption in the Westman Islands, one of the biggest natural disasters in the history of this small nation. The volcanic island which was heavily populated started erupting without warning in the middle of the night, so the island had to be suddenly evacuated, requiring most every fishing boat in Reykjavík to sail out and fetch the people.

Eldheimar Museum in Vestmannaeyjar - Hit Iceland
Eldheimar museum in Vestmannaeyjar is a new highly interesting museum, built to commemorate the event in 1973 when eruption started at the edge of this town of 5.800 inhabitants. It is a unique event in history and probably on the planet as the fissure opened practically in the small town located on a small island of Heimaey island. The evacuation of the whole town population in a few hours was unprecedented. In the museum, the story is told in a spectacular way using objects from the eruption and state of the art technology.
