|
| Egilsstadir is a town in
east Iceland on the banks of Lagarfljót river.
In 2007, the town had over 2,300
inhabitants.
The town is young, even by Icelandic
standards where urbanization is a fairly recent trend compared to mainland
Europe. It was established in 1947 as an effort by the surrounding rural
districts who felt the need for a service center in the region. They intentionally
chose a spot in the land of the Egilsstaðir farm (which the town was
named after) near the bridge over Lagarfljót because that is a spot
where all the main roads of the region meet, Route 1 as well as the main
routes to the Eastfjords. Today, Egilsstaðir has grown to become
the largest town of east Iceland and its main service, transportation and
administration center. |
