Vestmannaeyjabær, also known as Vestmannaeyjar or the Westman Islands, is a town and archipelago off the south coast of Iceland. The main island, Heimaey, is home to most of the area's population and serves as an important fishing port.
The archipelago's dramatic landscape was shaped by volcanic activity, most notably the 1973 Eldfell eruption that led to the evacuation of the entire population. After the eruption, most residents returned to rebuild their community. Today, the town is known for its fishing industry, distinct cultural heritage, and as a habitat for millions of puffins that nest in the cliffs. The volcanic history and unique island culture are preserved and presented through various cultural institutions in the area.
