The Ingólfur Arnarson statue in Reykjavik, Iceland, pays tribute to one of the first permanent Norwegian settlers of Reykjavík. Ingólfur Arnarson is believed to have settled on the west coast of Iceland in 874, together with his wife and foster brother. To commemorate Ingólfur's position as one of the founders of Reykjavík, a bronze statue of him was erected in the city in 1924. Ingólfur's statue is located on Arnarhóll Hill, at the eastern end of the Old Port. It is an impressive tribute to the man recognized as the founder of Reykjavik.

Ingólfur Arnarson, one of the most famous Icelanders, looks in the form of a sculpture (1923) by Einar Jónsson from the hill Arnarhóll towards the harbor. According to tradition, he was the first settler of Iceland. He threw the pillars of his high seat off the coast of Iceland and vowed to settle where the wind and waves washed the pillars back to shore. The choice of elements fell on the bay of Reykjavik.
