    Leif Eiriksson was an Icelandic explorer. He was the first European to set foot on the American continent near Newfoundland in 1021. There are several legends about how this discovery came about, but it has already been archaeologically proven. Thus, Eiriksson discovered America 500 years before Columbus. No wonder Icelanders pay special tribute to their discoverer. Learn more about the interesting life of Eiriksson and his father, Eric the Red, at the Leif Eiriksson Centre.

    Afterwards you can enjoy a quick bite to eat or some good coffee on the ground floor.
