Out of the Jurisdiction: Turf Houses

 Turf houses were in use for about 900 years in Glaumbaer, a farming community in the north of Iceland.

This collection of farmhouses at Glaumbaer was added to the National Museum of Iceland's collection of protected buildings in 1947.  The outbuildings house old farm implements.  The main house has furnishings perhaps typical of the first half of the 20th century.  I was too tall to walk through it.
