Why Visit
Visitors can take an elevator to the tower for panoramic views over Reykjavik.
Did You Know?
The church design was inspired by Icelandic basalt lava columns.
The Church That Grew Like Lava
Locals joke that Hallgrímskirkja took so long to build that it grew like Icelandic lava—slowly and stubbornly. Some say that on quiet nights, if you stand beneath the tower, you can hear the whispers of hymns from centuries past, carried through the basalt-inspired walls by the wind. Others believe the church's towering spire points the way to hidden elf churches in the hills beyond the city.
