Local artist Samúel Jónsson lived out his old age at a remote farm in Selárdalur, at the tip of the Arnarfjörður, and he filled his days by creating a series of cartoon-like "naive" sculptures. Visitors can visit to admire his surreal works: a flamboyant house, a circle of lions (inspired by a postcard Samúel saw of the Alhambra in Spain), and an ornate church constructed by the artist after the altarpiece he made for the village's existing church was rejected.
