Teave
Kiired faktid: The towering structure mimics Iceland's basalt lava flows with its striking stepped concrete facade. At 74.5 meters tall, it is among the tallest buildings in the country and offers panoramic city views from its observation tower.
Esiletõstmised: The pipe organ inside has 5,275 pipes and weighs 25 tons, creating an otherworldly sound that resonates through the cavernous space. A quirky tradition involves local concerts where the echo melds with the powerful organ music, creating a surreal experience.
