Búðardalur

The village of Búðardalur is situated on the Hvammsfjörður in the north-west of Iceland. The village also lies at the north-eastern end of the Snæfellsnes peninsula.

Búðardalur has about 260 inhabitants and it is a service center for the area.

The village has a long history, dating from the time of the first settlements in Iceland. The name indicates a center of commerce (meaning valley of shops). In 1899, Búðardalur was officially granted the right of commerce. An old house from this time is still existing.
