It’s hard to believe it has been approximating 6-month since MJ and I went to Iceland. In the COVID world, everything that happened recently seem like it happened 10 years ago. Or is it just me?
Anyway, here is another photo from norther Iceland. This is the oldest church in Iceland, and I loved it. Small, simple, and beautiful.
This turf structure is the oldest church in Iceland. It is located on the north side of the country (Skagi Peninsula) near the village of Hofsos. Parts of the turf church date back to the 17th century. Turf structures like this were often used during that time for houses, churches, and businesses. Weird fact, this church is the only one in Iceland with a circular turf-wall around the graveyard and the church.
