Hofskirkja Turf Church, nestled in South-East Iceland's Öræfi region, is a charming relic of traditional Icelandic architecture. With its grass-covered roof, this church exudes a cozy, old-world charm that transports visitors back in time. Built in 1884 and restored in the 1950s, Hofskirkja is one of the last remaining turf churches in Iceland, making it a must-see for history buffs and architecture enthusiasts alike.
