    This is one of the most historical places in Iceland. It is located in South Iceland around 1 hour drive from Reykjavík the capital. This was a bishop seat and center for learning and administration for over 700 years as well as a place of pilgrimage in medieval times. Today this is a place of culture, spirituality, and music where tourists both Icelandic and from different countries visit. Our Church is non profit and offer guided tours around the premises for tourists, and during summer there are cultural programs and festivals of music and religion. Year round there are cultural, educational, and artistic events and retreats.

    If you are skilled with Instagram, Facebook, wix website, making short videos, taking pictures, ect then you would be very useful to us.
