Nólsoy is an island and village in central Faroe Islands, 4 km east of the capital Tórshavn in Streymoy.
Nólsoy is the lowest of the Faroes; the highest point is Eggjarklettur on the mountain Høgoyggj. The southern coast contains two capes, each with a lighthouse . The lighthouses were built in the late 18th century to aid smugglers working against the unpopular trading monopoly imposed by Denmark. In 2005, the National Bank of Denmark issued a 20 DKK commemorative coin for the lighthouse.
