#Hestur (pop. 15) is a #Faroese village on the island of Hestur. Its name refers to the ridge of the #island which resembles the back of a #horse - #hestur in #Faroese.
In 1919 a fishing accident resulted in the deaths of one-third of #Hestur's men. Following that accident and to fight the depopulation of the village a swimming #pool was built - it was opened in 1983.
The local #post office opens just once a week for only 90 minutes.
