#timetotravel The Herring Era Museum in Siglufjörður, Iceland, is a hidden gem that takes you back in time to a fascinating period of Icelandic history. This small town was once the herring capital of the world, and this museum brilliantly captures that era. Walking through the exhibits, I was transported to the early 20th century. The museum's meticulous attention to detail, with preserved buildings, machinery, and artifacts, creates an immersive experience. I could almost hear the hum of the herring factories and feel the excitement of the fishing boom. The personal stories shared by the local guides added depth to the visit, providing insights into the challenges and triumphs of that bygone era. The museum's location amidst stunning fjord scenery is a bonus. It's a must-visit for history enthusiasts and anyone interested in Iceland's rich heritage.
