The Fairest Church in
Iceland

The Church of Mosfell in the
Valley of Mosfell

Mosfellskirkja in Mosfellsdalur.
A story of a bell lost, a bell
regained, told by the Icelandic author
Halldór Laxness (b. 1902) who in 1955
won the Nobel prize in literature.
Mosfell where viking and poet Egill
Skallagrímsson (910 - c. 990)
lived to a very great age.
"A time to be born, and a time to die."

The champion's treasure
still not found.
Why look for silver
If gold can be found
In Christ's teachings in this place,
This historical place?
