monument, place with historical importance
Older farm at Koltur. Probably it was the first settlement on the island and one of oldest on whole archipelago, dated back to Vikings Era. It's divided into two parts Niðri í Húsi and Uppi í Búð. Even though buildings were in great and not modernized state in years 1991 - 1997 they were repaired and from 2000 till 2012 they were conservated. Since then both farms function as museum.
