Menningarmiðstoð Kópavogs

TIME : 2016/2/18 20:28:43

The cultural complex Menningarmiðstoð Kópavogs contains Kópavogur’s Natural History Museum , which has an orca skeleton, a good collection of taxidermied animals and geological specimens, and some of Mývatn lake’s odd Marimo balls.

You’ll also find Iceland’s first specially designed concert hall here, built entirely from Icelandic materials (driftwood, spruce and crushed stone). Salurinn has fantastic acoustics – see the website for details of its (mostly classical) concert program. Tickets cost Ikr1000 to Ikr4000 depending on the concert.
