ÃÂórshöfn () or Thorshofn is a small fishing village in northeast Iceland, located on the northern coast of the Langanes peninsula on the ÃÂistilfjörður bay.
The village has a population of 380 people. It is the administrative centre of Langanesbyggð municipality and formerly of the neighbouring Svalbarðshreppur municipality until the two merged. In ÃÂórshöfn there is a year-round service to tourists, and Icelandair connects the village to Akureyri and ReykjavÃÂk with seasonal flights from ÃÂórshöfn Airport.
ÃÂórshöfn is also the Icelandic name of Tórshavn (capital of the Faroe Islands).
The climate is arctic (Koppen: ET) with cold winters and cool summers.
Sauðanes, a farm about seven kilometres north of ÃÂórshöfn on Langanes peninsula, has a church built in 1889 and a parsonage (Sauðaneshús) dating from 1879 which was the first stone building in the Northeastern part of Iceland. The church doors were made of driftwood, and the winged altarpiece dates from 1742. The pulpit was created in the 18th century as well. The parsonage was renovated from 1991 to 2003 and transformed into a museum.
