Nordfjordeid has served as a trading centre in the Nordfjord district since the 19th century. It stands at the inner end of Eidsfjorden, an arm of Nordfjord on Norway’s western coast, where steep mountains meet a settled fjord shoreline. The town is home to Sagastad, a cultural centre devoted to the Myklebust ship, a major Viking Age ship burial discovered nearby in 1874. Nordfjordeid also hosts the Norwegian Fjord Horse Centre, reflecting the region’s long association with the distinctive fjord horse breed.
