Founded around 874 by Ingólfur Arnarson, Reykjavík is Iceland's oldest permanent settlement. Its name means "smoke bay," a reference to the surrounding geothermal fumes. However, the city remained largely insignificant and consisted of farms until the 18th century. The key turning point came in 1786, when Denmark granted the settlement city rights, making it a center of the wool industry and trade. Today, Reykjavík is the capital of Iceland and an important center for culture and politics. Early Settlement and Naming (c. 874 AD) First Settler: The Norse settler Ingólfur Arnarson is considered Iceland's first permanent resident. He settled in the area that is now Reykjavík around 874. Naming: Arnarson named the settlement Reykjavík ("Smoke Bay") because he saw the steam from the surrounding hot springs and mistakenly thought it was smoke.

From the airport to your hotel in Reykjavik Reykjavik International Airport (also known as Keflavík International Airport or Flugstöð Leifs Eiríkssona Airport) is located about 50 kilometers southwest of the city center and has only one terminal. Just two kilometers from the city center is the small Reykjavíkurflugvöllur Airport, which, however, is only used for domestic flights within Iceland.

Since Tuesday, August 5, no more lava has been escaping from the eruption fissure located approximately seven kilometers northeast of Grindavik. Volcanologists believe it is highly likely that the eruption has ended for the time being. The temporarily closed campsite in the town of Grindavik is now freely accessible again.
