Reykjavík - Church of Hallgrímur

(Local Name: Hallgrímskirkja) Visible from over 20km/15mi away is Reykjavík's highest and most imposing structure, Hallgrímskirkja. The church was completed in 1974 after 30 years of construction.

Apart from its stark, light-filled interior and architectural resemblance to basaltic lava, there is the chance to view the city from its tower.
