Kirkjuboargardur (or King’s Farm)

Kirkjuboargardur literally implies ‘Yard of Kirkjubour’ or ‘the King's Farm’ in English. It is one of the world’s oldest wooden houses dating back to 11th century. This wooden structure has also kept the distinction of being the largest farm in the Faroe Islands for centuries now. Kirkjuboargardur is hallmarked by two rooms called Roykstova (reek parlor) and Loftstovan (loft room). The former is the oldest part of the farmhouse and the latter is where the earliest document of Faroe Island, called the ‘Sheep Letter,’ was written in 1298 AD.
