Norðragøta Travel Guide

By Verified Expert

Norðragøta is a village in the Faroe Islands situated on Eysturoy Island. The village is known for its grass roofed Town Hall that crosses the steam near the ocean in Norðragøta.

The building is a piece of art by the local architect Ósbjørn Jacobsen. The building itself bends over the stream in the village. You can walk on the town Hall’s roof and thereby cross the stream.
