Description
Vik's Reyniskirkja Church sits hilltop overlooking the seafront village. The church's iconic white walls and red roof sit in stark contrast to the green hillside and rugged, rocky terrain. The congregation in Vík í Mýrdal dates to 1873 and is a parish of the Church of Norway. The current church building was constructed in 1929.
Visitors to Vik typically stop at the church, the Reynisfjara Black Sand Beach, and the Mýrdalsjökull Glacier.
