| | Vágar - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Vágar is the first port of call for most foreigners travelling to the Faroe Islands, as it is home to the islands’ only airport, Vágar Airport. |
 | | The third large village is Sørvágur, which is on the western side of the island, near the airport, and has 980 inhabitants (2003). |
 | | During World War II, when the airfield was being built in 1942-1944, 5,000 British soldiers lived in Sørvágur, but now few traces remain of their camp to the south of the village. |
