This museum is a good one, especially if you realize a little bit what you're visiting. Read about it, visit it and read some more....

It's an art installation, with an important message. After absorbing the presence of the pillars, it's worth spending a few minutes in the reading room to learn more about the artist and her message. Staff were practically invisible, more interested in socializing with friends than helping visitors.

The view is spectacular of the harbor and most of the town. The concept is that there is water from many of the Icelandic glaciers in large floor to ceiling tubes. If you like quirky things like this, then you will enjoy the quick stop in here.

I paid a quick visit as it is located within eyesight of our room at the hotel. It is intended to be a reflection on water in its various moods but really it's just a bunch of tubes filled with water with words written on the floor. On the plus side there are great views out to the ocean and overlooking the harbour in a wind free environment. Very expensive for what it is, however.

There is really nothing to see! Some glass tubes filled with water in a sterile room. I really do not understand the attraction

Some of the guidebooks talk about this as being free...its not (or, at least, isn't now)...it is 500 ISK/Adult (i.e. USD$4.50). While that isn't much...I'm not sure what I got for my money.I guess this is supposed to be art, but it is badly managed (we walked in, paid, and were left to our own devices...and when a couple came in asking what it as...before they paid their money...the only explanation was the one in the guidebooks.. To get value of this we need more detailed explanation of how to work with it...Maybe its just supposed to be art...but if so, it seems rather self-agrandizing. Skip it.

Weren't sure about this one, but really enjoyed it. Wonderful view of the whole town and a fascinating exhibit. It is wonderful how the water columns reflect the surrounding landscape. Attendant is very helpful with explanations.

Had never heard of. Museum that specialized in water but here it is! In a wonderful location and worth the visit just for the view

First off this is an art installation so if art is not your thing there won't be much to hold your attention. There are 24 pillars filled with water, each from a different glacier, spaced out around the main room, the floor of which is covered with words used to describe weather in English and Icelandic. It's serene and quiet and lovely. I saw on a windowsill and sketched for about half and hour and was completely at peace. There is also a semicircular room with tables for chess. I would have loved to have come here with a good book or laptop and just written for hours but sadly we were constrained by the ferry timetable.It's a relatively easy walk up from the harbour, you don't need the drive - two short staircases up to he top of the cliff. Well worth a visit, though I imagine kids might get bored. 500ISK entrance fee and you have to take your shoes off.

What a creative and artistic way to preserve glacial water. I visited the museum in the evening and it was enchanting. Does not require a lot of time. There are also beautiful views of small Stykkisholmur from the large floor-to-ceiling windows.
