Hallgrimskirkja is a Lutheran church in the center of Reykjavik, the capital of Iceland.
Gudjohn Samuelson, the architect of the above—mentioned church (his "pen" also belongs to the churches of Akureyri and Aubayarkirkya), prepared the project in 1937, the temple was built for 38 years — construction was started in 1945 and completed in 1986.
This unique church is clearly visible from anywhere in the city and serves as a reliable landmark on the terrain, since it is the tallest building in Reykjavik: the distance to the top of the bell tower is 75 meters. The temple is named after Hallgrimur Pietursson, a famous Icelandic artist, spiritual leader, poet, who wrote the book "Hymns of Passion" in his homeland
In front of the entrance to the temple there is a sculpture of Leif Erikson, also known as Leif the Happy. It is believed that this brave Viking from Iceland discovered America long before Columbus.
