HISTORY & MUSEUMS<br />

Randulf’s sea-house<br />

Randulf´s fisherman-lodge is a beautifully preserved shore-building.<br />

Built by Norwegian Peter Randulff in 1890 it provided a station for<br />

landing and processing herring caught within the fjord through to<br />

1930. <strong>The</strong> house preserves many artefacts and a lingering atmosphere<br />

from the days when herring fishery was a way of life in the Fjords.<br />

<strong>The</strong> ticket includes a taste of shark-meat (hákarl) and dried fish<br />

(harðfiskur), both produced in Eskifjörður and widely acknowledged<br />

as being among the very best in <strong>Iceland</strong>. Traditional <strong>Iceland</strong>ic fish and<br />

meat soup or roast lamb can be provided for groups for lunch or<br />

dinners. Rent a boat at dock for recreational fishing within the fjord<br />

where cod and haddock are still plentiful.<br />

Location Strandgata, 735 Eskifjörður<br />
