Fáskrúðsfjörður is a small village located in the Eastern Region of Iceland, situated on a fjord of the same name. The village has a unique historical connection to France, as it was a major base for French fishermen who fished in Icelandic waters during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This French heritage is still visible today in the village's street signs, which are written in both Icelandic and French.
The village is home to the French Museum, housed in beautifully restored historical buildings that once served as a French hospital and chapel. The museum chronicles the history of French sailors in Iceland and their influence on the local community.
The surrounding landscape features typical Icelandic fjord scenery with steep mountains and coastal views that reflect the region's natural beauty.
