    This is Akureyri's landmark and literally towers over the fjord and city center. Climb the steps and enjoy the view! The church was inaugurated in 1940 and designed by Guðjón Samúelsson - the same architect responsible for the famous Hallgrímskirkja in Reykjavík. The similarity is no coincidence!

      The church towers over the town and is beautiful. Definitely visit.

        This clean and beautiful city is always worth a visit. Besides the church, the botanical garden and many other things, it is a worthwhile destination!
