About Torshavn

Tórshavn (IPA: [tʰɶrshaun]) (Danish: Thorshavn, Icelandic: Þórshöfn, Swedish: Torshamn) is the capital of the Faroe Islands. The city is located in Tórshavn municipality on southern Streymoy island and has 19,000 inhabitants. The name of the city means "Thor's Harbour", named after the god of thunder and lightning in Norse mythology. The Faroese government is located in the historic Tinganes peninsula of Tórshavn. The parliament, the Løgting, was originally located on Tinganes, but since 1856 it has been located on the town square, Vaglið. To the northwest of the town lies the 347 metre high mountain Húsareyn, and to the southwest, the 350 meter high Kirkjubøreyn. Tórshavn Cathedral was first built in 1788 and partly rebuilt in 1865. Since 1990 it has been the seat of the Bishop of the Faroe Islands (in the national Evangelical-Lutheran Church).
