Torshavn The Capital (Tour E)

TORSHAVN, FAROE ISLANDS

Today Tórshavn is considered one of the smallest and most pleasant capital cities in the world. The history of Tórshavn began centuries ago when Vikings from Western Norway first met in the middle of the islands for their annual gathering. This summer court and market gradually grew into a permanent trading area. Under Norwegian and then Danish rule government officials made Tórshavn their home. They built forts to protect themselves and, spurred on by an expanding fishing fleet, the village soon became a thriving town. Tórshavn today blends the historical and picturesque with all the features of a modern city.
