Höfði House
Höfði House is a historic waterfront villa in Reykjavík, famous as the site of the 1986 Cold War summit between US President Ronald Reagan and Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev. Built in 1909 as a French consulate, the house also has a long ghost story. Local lore describes persistent hauntings by the 'White Lady', a specter whose presence drove former owners, including poet Einar Benediktsson, to leave the property.
