Icelandic Sheepdog Heritage Center

This past Saturday, we opened the Icelandic Sheepdog Heritage Center (Sögusetur Íslenska fjárhundsins) at Lýtingsstaðir in Skagafjörður.
The opening ceremony was well attended and full of wonderful guests.

Behind the exhibition lies two and a half years of research and preparation. The goal of the center is to preserve the history of the Icelandic Sheepdog and to make it accessible and visible.

We hope the exhibition will spark interest among locals as well as international visitors in the Icelandic Sheepdog as an important part of our cultural heritage.

The center is open daily throughout the summer from 9 AM to 6 PM, and by appointment outside those hours. Since we live on-site, we’re also happy to welcome visitors during other times of the year. 

We look forward to seeing you!
