Tips
The title "seat of government" is chosen somewhat profane, after all, the Tinganes as a gathering of the Faroese has been held here since Viking times - at that time still under the open sky. In any case, a deeply impressive place in the middle of an old town of great beauty, even if the parliament no longer meets here.

The government is based in tiny houses. You just walk through them. Very beautiful and very dignified.
