This is a wonderful place to visit, on the way around the norther fjords in Iceland.
There is a sign explaining the remains of this settlement. Here is what is written in English :
"Litlibaer was built in 1895. The hayfield around the house is enclosed by stone wall and has an area of 3 hectares.
The residents lived of fishing and farming. The house at Litlibaer has an area of only 3.9 X 7.4 meters.
There were two kitchen outhouses nearby. As many as 20 people lived in the house at times, and it was occupied until 1969.
Just south of the stone wall are the ruins of circular stone-built shelter, which is considered much older than other stone construction at Litlibaer."
The view from that point is awesome!
