What does the Apple Command key symbol (⌘) mean on Icelandic road signs?

I found the definitive answer when I was typing this question; while inserting the ⌘ in the question’s title and hovering over it, the dialog showed me it’s a Place of Interest Sign:

According to Wikipedia, it’s called a Looped Square and it’s mainly used for this specific purpose in the Scandinavian countries:

It is also known as the place of interest sign when used on information signs, a practice which started in Finland in the 1950s, spreading to the other Nordic countries in the 1960s.

To my defense, before Iceland I’ve only been to Helsinki as a tourist. (But maybe I should’ve checked the Wikipedia page about the Command Key first.)
