Zpráva od Aron Tómas Guðmannsson

Akureyrarkirkja, also known as Akureyri Church, is a Lutheran church located in the charming town of Akureyri in North Iceland. It's a real standout with its towering presence and unique design. The church was built in 1940 and features a central window inspired by the Coventry Cathedral in England. Inside, you'll find beautiful bas-reliefs by Asmundur Sveinsson and a replica of a font created by Bertel Thorvaldsen. Don't miss the impressive pipe organ with its 3200 pipes and the model ship hanging from the ceiling, which pays homage to an old pagan tradition. Akureyrarkirkja is definitely worth a visit if you're in the area!
