Message from Thrainn Kolbeinsson

Hvalsneskirkja is a beautiful stone church located in Hvalnes, on the Reykjanes peninsula. It was built between 1886-87 mostly from rocks in the vicinity and driftwood from the nearby beaches. If you're into churches, architecture and beautiful buildings, this one is only a short drive from the Keflavík Airport.

QUICK NOTES:

  • What it is: A beautiful church on the Reykjanes peninsula.

  • Best season: Any.

  • Best time of day: Any.

  • Nice to know: It is usually closed but feel free to walk around the area.
