About Völundarhús

Völundarhús er fornt mannvirki staðsett vestast á Syðribarða, milli Dritvíkur og Djúpalónssands. „Í Dritvík var ekki heilsárs útgerð eða viðlega. En þarna héldu menn sig á vorvertíð. Í landlegum, þegar vistin hefur orðið daufleg, hafa menn byggt sér þetta völundarhús til leikja og dægrastyttingar. Enginn veit hversu gamalt þetta mannvirki er.“
