Herjólfstown is named for Herjólfur Bárðarson, associated in settlement tradition with the early habitation of Vestmannaeyjar. A reconstructed stone-and-turf building was erected in Herjólfsdalur based on archaeological research, and the visitor attraction now includes a Viking wax-museum experience. Because programming and opening arrangements can change, travellers should check the operator's current information before visiting.
