Mind-Blowing Iceland Facts to Make You Fall in Love with the Country

The Elf School

Iceland is renowned for its glaciers and geysers, however, it is also home to the lesser-known elf school called Álfaskólinn, which is located in Reykjavík. Headmaster Magnus Skarphedinsson founded the school to document and preserve over 1,400 stories of elf encounters.

The school provides lectures and tours which give an insight into the country’s rich mythology and folklore. It educates visitors about various invisible beings that inhabit the region, such as elfs and fairy tales. Álfaskólinn is a remarkable source of information and entertainment. This might not be strange to the locals, since over 60 percent of Icelanders believe in the existence of elves.
