Sturluson

The Reykholt parsonage is on the site of the house of Snorri Sturluson, the historian, who lived nearly seven hundred years ago.

In the view of Snorri Sturluson, the old gods are exempt from any touch of controversy.

Such is the story as told by Snorri Sturluson, the Icelandic historian, in 1222.

The figure of Snorri Sturluson is there, though he is rather disappointing in his nephew's view of him.

Some eighty paces off is to be seen the wool-bath erected by Snorri Sturluson.
