    The Reykjavik Cathedral is located right next to the Houses of Parliament and near Lake Tjörnin. The present church was built in 1847 because the old church was too small and dilapidated.
    Especially worth seeing is the baptismal font.

        Reykjavík Cathedral (Icelandic: Dómkirkjan í Reykjavík; Danish: Reykjavik Domkirke) is a cathedral church in Reykjavík, Iceland, the seat of the Bishop of Iceland and mother church of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Iceland, as well as the parish church of the old city centre and environs. It is located at Austurvöllur, and next to it is Alþingishúsið (the parliament house). Since Iceland's parliament, the Alþingi, was resurrected in 1845, each session of parliament has begun with a Mass at the cathedral, and from there the dean of the cathedral leads the members of parliament to the parliament house.
