    Tips

    Around 1900, the grain of the surrounding farmers was ground in this water mill. The door to the mill house is open. Next to the mill itself is a photograph showing how water was diverted from the stream and dammed for the mill. The mill ditch and the barrage flap are still visible, but overgrown. The millstones are the originals, the mill itself has been recreated.

      A bit hidden but interesting. There is also an information board (unfortunately only in Icelandic).
