Myndir
Myndavefur
Skálholt was one of Iceland's two episcopal seats from 1056 to 1796 and for centuries was the country's leading religious, educational and cultural centre. The present cathedral was completed in 1963 on a site occupied by a succession of earlier churches. Beneath it, the crypt preserves archaeological remains connected with the medieval cathedral and the stone sarcophagus of Bishop Páll Jónsson. The wider Skálholt site also includes exhibitions and cultural facilities, making it one of the most important historic stops on the Golden Circle.

Skálholt – Ghosts of Iceland's Ancient Cathedral
For nearly eight centuries, Skálholt stood at the heart of Icelandic religious life, witnessing fires, earthquakes, political struggles and the bloody execution of Bishop Jón Arason and his sons, and with centuries of bishops, clergy and the dead buried beneath and around the cathedral grounds, it is perhaps unsurprising that Icelandic folklore has wrapped the ancient site in tales of shadowy figures, unexplained footsteps and restless spirits that seem reluctant to leave one of the country's most sacred and historically powerful places.
