Hallgrimskirkja towers over the center of Reykjavik, and its 73-meter high tower provides a wonderful view over the entire city. Building work started in 1945, and the church was finally consecrated on October 26, 1986. The state architect, Guðjónn Samúelsson (1887-1950) designed the church. He drew richly on Icelandic traditions and materials.
It was designed with a Greek cross layout and contained a dome. In addition, over on the Western Hill, the Landakotskirkja church, also known as the Basilica of Christ the King was built. This church was also designed by Guðjón Samúelsson but with a Neo-Gothic style. The Landakotskirkja was the largest church in Iceland in 1929.
