Bárður Snæfellsás Statue

Near Arnarstapi is the statue of Bárður Snæfellsás. According to an Icelandic saga, this troll is said to live in the Snæfellsjökull glacier.
The saga in short:
Bárður emigrated to Iceland with his wife and daughters and arrived on the beach of Djupalon. He built his farm near here.
Þorkell, brother of Bárður, lived with his two sons (Rauðfeldr and Sölvi) in Arnarstapi.
The sons of Þorkell and the daughters of Bárður often played together.
One day, when there was pack ice along the coast, Rauðfeldr pushed Helga (the eldest daughter) out to sea on an iceberg.
Helga floated all the way to Greenland unharmed. When Bárður found out about this he became furious.
He pushed Rauðfeldr into the Rauðfeldsgjá ravine and threw Sölvi off the Sölvahamar, a high coastal cliff east of Arnarstapi.
Then Bárður and Þorkell got into a fight and Þorkell broke his leg. At this Thorkell left Arnarstapi.
After this event, Bárður gave away his land and disappeared into the Snæfellsjökull glacier. To this day he is said to live in and protect the glacier.
