DENMARK: Streetart Tórshavn – Faroe Islands – Urban Art on Streymoy

Tórshavn is the capital of the Faroe Islands and with around 23.000 inhabitants the political, economic, and cultural center of the archipelago in the North Atlantic, which is partly autonomous but belongs to Denmark. The name means “Thor’s Harbor” and refers to the Norse god Thor, a nod to the city’s Viking origins whose settlers came here around the 9th century. Today Tórshavn combines traditional grass-roofed houses with modern Nordic architecture. Particularly worth seeing are the old town “Reyn” with its narrow alleys and black tarred wooden constructions, as well as the Tinganes peninsula with its red government buildings directly on the harbor, home to one of the oldest surviving parliaments in the world, the Løgting. Cultural attractions include the National Museum of the Faroe Islands and the modern Havnar Kirkja church. And there are several kinds of interesting urban art to be found on the streets. Here we have a collection photographed by graffiti hunter and streetart lover MAZZANTI. Check out her instagram channel, where she regularly presents great pictures from countries all over the world.
