Hvirfill
Standing at Austurgarð on the pier in Sandgerði is the artwork Hvirfill, created by Jón Þórisson. The installation commemorates 100 years of powered fishing vessels in Sandgerði. A competition was held to choose a sculpture that would honour the town's fishing industry. Hvirfill was the winning submission and was unveiled in 2007. The sculpture is made of stainless steel and is movable in the wind.
