Hallgrímskirkja (Icelandic pronunciation: [ˈhatlkrimsˌcʰɪrca], church of Hallgrímur) is a Lutheran (Church of Iceland) parish church in Reykjavík, Iceland. At 73 metres (244 ft), it is the largest church in Iceland and the sixth tallest architectural structure in Iceland after Longwave radio mast Hellissandur, the radio masts of the US Navy at Grindavík, Eiðar longwave transmitter and Smáratorg tower. The church is named after the Icelandic poet and clergyman Hallgrímur Pétursson (1614 to 1674), author of the Passion Hymns.
State Architect Guðjón Samúelsson's design of the church was commissioned in 1937. He is said to have designed it to resemble the basalt lava flows of Iceland's landscape. It took 41 years to build the church. Construction work began in 1945 and ended in 1986, the landmark tower being completed long before the church's actual completion. The crypt beneath the choir was consecrated in 1948, the steeple and wings were completed in 1974, and the nave was consecrated in 1986. Situated in the centre of Reykjavík, it is one of the city's best-known landmarks and is visible throughout the city. It is 1676 Sqm. It is similar in style to the expressionist architecture of Grundtvig's Church of Copenhagen, Denmark, completed in 1940.
Take a virtual tour of Hallgrímskirkja with your guides from Iceland Review Online. Learn more about the church's unusual design, meet one of the pastors, and finally find out what the deal is with that viking statue right in front of the entrance.
Reykjavik (Islanda) La famosa Hallgrímskirkja. L'idea iniziale era quella di salire in cima alla torre da dove si vede tutta la città, ma oggi era una giornata con molta poca luce (le immagini esterne sono girate alle 11:30 di mattina circa) e così abbiamo rimandato a domani la salita sulla torre e siamo entrati per ascoltare il coro.

This is what I have been building for so long. It is the Minecraft replica of the Hallgrímskirkja in Reykjavík, Iceland. I liked that building ever since I have seen a photograph of it. Now I had the opportunity to build it for the glory of KFPerin's Minecraft server. (168.144.48.60:25565)

With a population of only 300,000, Iceland can feel like the most isolated place on earth, yet its capital Reykjavik, is only a three-hour flight from London and just under six from New York. Reykjavik is relaxed and welcoming, yet possesses a cultural life that holds its own against other European capitals. Most buildings are built simple and low to beat the North Atlantic winds. However, the city is also graced with grand civic architecture inspired by Iceland’s natural beauty, such as the soaring central tower of Hallgrímskirkja. Many of the country’s most popular sights are within easy reach of Reykjavík. Immerse yourself in the spirit of Iceland, at the Blue Lagoon. Then spend a day or two in The Golden Circle, an area which encompasses three of Iceland’s greatest natural wonders;...
