When anyone speaks of the Reykjavik Church, this is the one they are referring to. Hallgrímskirkja is the center point in downtown Reykjavík and without a doubt the most grandiose building in the area. Guðjón Samúelsson was the architect for the project and he is said to have found inspiration in the heavenly waterfall Svartifoss with it's hexagonal basalt columns. In Hallgrímkirkja’s lobby you can, for a small fee, take the lift up to the church tower. Definitely worth it.
