Nachricht von Irene Pila

Hallgrímskirkja is a spectacular Lutheran church located in Reykjavik, Iceland. It is the largest church in the country and one of the tallest structures in all of Iceland. With its distinctively curved spire and side wings, it has become an important symbol of Iceland's national identity since its completion in 1986. The church is named after Icelandic poet and cleric Hallgrímur Pétursson, the author of the Passion Hymns. The Expressionist Neo-Gothic design by chief architect Guðjón Samúelsson makes the building a true work of art and reflects the stunning Icelandic landscape, with its rocky pillars resembling organ pipes. Inside the church are two large pipe organs, as well as an exquisite statue of Jesus donated by Einar Jónsson in 1948. Visitors can even take a lift to the viewing deck and enjoy wonderful panoramic views of the city and mountains. Hallgrímskirkja is truly a sight to behold!
