Description

Discover Icelandic and international art across some of Reykjavík’s most distinctive cultural spaces with an admission ticket that lets you choose between three museum experiences. Visit the National Gallery of Iceland, the Einar Jónsson Museum, or combine both for a broader look at Iceland’s artistic heritage, from early pioneers to modern and contemporary voices.

At the National Gallery of Iceland, explore exhibitions from the national collection alongside changing temporary shows by Icelandic and international artists. Your ticket also includes access to the House of Collections, giving you the chance to experience art across two separate locations in the city center. From historic works to newer perspectives, the exhibitions offer a rich introduction to Iceland’s visual culture in varied settings.

At the Einar Jónsson Museum, step into the world of Iceland’s first sculptor. Explore the museum building designed by the artist himself, see his preserved home and former studio, and walk through the sculpture garden filled with striking bronze works. Just a short walk from Hallgrímskirkja, it offers a more intimate and atmospheric encounter with Icelandic art and history.

If you choose the combined ticket, enjoy access to all three locations for a wider journey through Icelandic artistic expression. Whether you focus on one museum or visit them all, the experience ends at your final chosen venue in central Reykjavík.
