Akureyri Art Museum

The Akureyri Art Museum occupies two buildings connected by an annex, featuring multiple exhibition spaces across different floors with natural lighting.

Founded in 1993, the museum operates from a former dairy building that represents the architectural principles of the Bauhaus movement.

The museum exhibits works from Icelandic creators alongside international artists, including Henri Cartier-Bresson, Erró, and Kjarval through rotating displays.

Admission costs 2,200 ISK for adults and 1,100 ISK for seniors and students, with seasonal hours varying between summer and winter months.
