Garður is a municipality and town located in southwestern Iceland, bordered by the Faxaflói Bay on the Southern Peninsula.
The town Gardur, which means garden or yard, was named after one of the many earthen walls once erected on the boundaries between local properties. Garður was mentioned in the Book of Settlement when Ingólfur Arnarson, the first settler in Iceland, gave his cousin Steinunn Gamla this area of land.
