900 years old and still lived in to this day, this is the turf
roofed Roykstovan farmhouse at Kirkjubour on the Faroe Islands. It
was used as the bishop's residence back to the 12th century. It is
the oldest inhabited wooden house in Europe, lived in by the same
Patursson
family since 1550. Part of the building is a home with other
parts on view to the public.
