Hallgrímskirkja is a Lutheran (Church of Iceland) parish church in Reykjavík, Iceland. Towering at 74.5 meters (244 ft), it is the tallest church in Iceland and one of the most prominent landmarks in the country. Its unique design, inspired by Iceland’s basalt lava flows, was conceived by architect Guðjón Samúelsson in 1937. Construction began in 1945 and was completed in 1986.
Named after the Icelandic poet and clergyman Hallgrímur Pétursson, known for his Passion Hymns, Hallgrímskirkja combines expressionist and modernist elements, with its stepped concrete façade evoking volcanic landscapes. The church is also famous for its massive pipe organ and its panoramic viewing tower, offering stunning views over Reykjavík and beyond.
Reykjavík, the capital and largest city of Iceland, is the northernmost capital of a sovereign state in the world. Located in the southwest of the island, it is home to about 140,000 people, with over two-thirds of Iceland’s population living in the surrounding metropolitan area.
Founded in 1786 and growing rapidly in the 20th century, Reykjavík is a hub of culture, politics, and innovation, set against a backdrop of volcanic mountains, coastal vistas, and geothermal energy. The city balances old-world charm—seen in its traditional homes and churches—with a thriving contemporary scene of art, design, music, and sustainability.
