Fischer Memorial Tour II – Playing venue of the Match of the Century and the National Museum

On Monday the 12th of March and Tuesday the 13th of March, the Organizing Committee has organized special Fischer Memorial events.

13th of March at 09:00

On the 13th of March, at 09:00 the event will be a visit to Laugardalshöll, the playing venue of the March of the Century and a visit to the National Museum of Iceland to see the board used in the Match of the Century.

At Laugardalshöll, guests will have an opportunity to see the guest book from the Match of the Century, something that few people have seen, and then the Ping Pong room, where the 3rd game of the Match was played. Guests will be guided through the playing venue.

At the National Museum of Iceland, guests will see the famous chess board Fischer and Spassky used during the Match.

Departure will be from Harpa at 09:00 and the bus will drive to to Bryggjan Brugghús at about 11:30 – 12:00, where GM Helgi Ólafsson will deliver a lecture about Fischer, based on his book “Bobby Fischer Comes home: The Final Years in Iceland, a Saga of Friendship and Lost Illusions”
