The Church of Akureyri, Iceland

Akureyrarkirkja

Half way through our 14 day road trip around Iceland, we made our way to Akureyri, the second largest urban area in the north of Iceland. Akureyri  is a harbour-side city and is an important port and fishing centre in Iceland. The Church of Akureyri or Akureyrarkirkja is one of the famous icons in the city. The prominent Lutheran church is located at the centre of the city, towering above the city on a hill. Unfortunately we didn’t get to go into the church to check out the interior. It was the perfect sunny autumn morning to walk around the city before heading to our next stop.
