The clover symbol is a Saint Hannes cross which is sometimes found in Scandinavia as an ornament on Viking artifacts. It is used in Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden as a symbol of “sites of historical or touristic interest”, for example church ruins, museums, interesting natural formations, and so forth. It is used as a road sign at such places.

So now you know the facts.

I still don’t know what this sign means in Iceland… but you can see it everywhere!
