The Fairest Church in
Iceland

The Church of Hellnar

"In Hellnakirkja there is a frame,"
around him who said:
"I am the light of the world."
Only this frame, carved out of
driftwood from America by a
very promising young artist,
Jóhannes Helgason (1887-1920),
who tragically died in a snowstorm,
prompts you to ask:
"Which is the fairest
church in Iceland?"
