Foreword by the architects:
Baugur Bjólfs is a circular viewing platform located on Bæjarbrún. Here you have a unique view of Seyðisfjörður — from the mouth of the fjord, over the town, the mountain range and southwest into the valley. Above, the peaks of Bjólfs tower over.
The interaction of the magnificent nature and the shape of the circle creates an impressive experience. Part of the circle juts out over the mountainside, giving a soaring but safe experience. The nature and the environment are in the foreground, but the circular viewing platform is a beautiful addition and amplifies the effect in its simplicity. The circle provides a safe setting with easy access for everyone to stay and enjoy the view.
