The Memorial Monument

  • Memorial Monument, Mykines

Memorial Monument erected in memory of local men fallen in the mountains of Mykines or who drowned at sea.

Uphill from the road to the village, past the stone fence on the top, you find the memorial monument. It was erected in the 1930s in memory of local men fallen in the mountains of Mykines or drowned at sea. The monument was never inaugurated in the time after it was erected due to, among other things, the Second World War. It was finally inaugurated in 2008 after a committee of locals took the initiative to renovate the monument and had a commemorative plaque done including 37 names of fallen men of Mykines. The monument is located near the Óli Rami viewpoint from where there is a great view of the bird cliffs and skerries .
