About

Garðskagaviti (English: Garðskagi lighthouse) is a lighthouse located on Garðskaði, the easternmost tip of Iceland's Southern Peninsula. Garðskagaviti actually refers to two lighthouses: the first was built in 1897, and in 1944, a second lighthouse was built to replace the original. The newer lighthouse has been home to the Heritage and Maritime Museum since 1995.
