About This Design

Iceland Reykyavik Church of Hallgrimur Travel Magnet

Iceland Reykyavik Church of Hallgrimur Travel Magnet

The Church of Hallgrímur (Hallgrímskirkja) is one of Iceland’s most iconic landmarks, towering over the capital city of Reykjavík with its striking architectural design. Standing at 74.5 metres (244 feet), it is the tallest church in Iceland and one of the most recognisable buildings in the country. Designed by Icelandic architect Guðjón Samúelsson, the church was inspired by Iceland’s basalt lava columns, which naturally form in hexagonal patterns due to volcanic activity. Construction began in 1945 and took over 40 years to complete, finally finishing in 1986. Named after Hallgrímur Pétursson, a 17th-century Icelandic poet and clergyman known for his religious hymns, the church serves as both a place of worship and a major tourist attraction. One of the best features of Hallgrímskirkja is its observation tower, which offers panoramic views of Reykjavík and the surrounding mountains and ocean. Visitors can take an elevator to the top to enjoy one of the best vistas in the city. The church’s interior is minimalist, reflecting traditional Icelandic design, with a grand pipe organ built by German organ builder Johannes Klais. Outside the church stands a statue of Leif Erikson, the Viking explorer believed to have reached North America before Columbus. This statue was a gift from the United States in 1930 to commemorate Iceland’s 1,000th anniversary of its parliament, the Alþingi. Whether admired for its unique architecture, cultural significance, or breathtaking views, Hallgrímskirkja remains a must-visit destination in Iceland.

I was expecting better. Image looks faded and the houses on the image are near folded underneath. Likely throw this in the bin.

My partner proposed on our first holiday and we ate tonnes of garlic bread. This was a perfect reminder. The magnet is strong and the quality and value for money excellent. Exactly as pictured. Superb.

Creator Review
Excellent all round, the printing is great and the magnet is streamlined, not chunky. The actual magnet is very strong. Very good quality and the price is low. Absolutely fantastic! Crisp, bright, clean.
