Stóra Dímun
From Biocrawler, the free encyclopedia.
Stóra Dímun is an island in the southern Faroe Islands with an area of 2.5 sq km. The island is only accessible during clear and calm weather periods. There is only one family currently living on the island. Before 1920 the ruins of an old church were present, but they have since gone. There are two mountains on Stóra Dímun: Høgoyggj (395 m) and Klettarnir (308 m). The island was home to several of the people in the 13th century work Faeringa Saga (Saga of the Faroe Islanders).
