Hidden Gems

Explore Reykjavík’s unconventional side through a collection of specialized museums and striking public art. This list includes a punk music archive housed in a converted public toilet, a museum featuring 23 life-sized whale models, and the world’s largest collection of phallological specimens. Architectural highlights range from the sculptural, recycled-metal "Raven’s Nest" to the modernist Kópavogur Church. The selection is rounded out by the "Unknown Bureaucrat," a satirical bronze and volcanic rock sculpture located near the city center.
