Church of Hallgrimur
Located in the heart of Reykjavik, Iceland, the Church of Hallgrimur is indeed amazing. The architecture is designed to resemble Iceland’s basalt lava flows. Building this great structure actually took 38 years and it was only completed in 1896. Many believe that it is similar to Copenhagen’s Grundtvig Church.
The Church of Hallgrimur is home to a huge pipe organ made by Johannes Klais. You can climb up to the highest floor and view the entire city as well as the surrounding mountains. It is one of the tallest structures in the country and named after a local poet.
