Djaknadys Burial Cairn (Djáknadys)
Djaknadys 'Deacon's Cairn' is the large mound of rocks by the side of the road on the north shore of Hamarsfjorður, near the head of the fjord.
Legend has it that the pastor and deacon of the local church had a violent argument at this spot, which ended in their deaths. The deacon was buried by piling stones over his body. The grave is a protected site and no stones may be added to it.
