Möðrudalskirkja

In Möðrudalur there is a small and beautiful church that was built in 1949. Farmer Jón A. Stefánsson (1880-1971) created the church in memory of his wife, Þórunn Vilhjálmsdóttir, who died in 1944. The church is built on the foundation of the older Möðrudalskirkja church. Jón both constructed and decorated the church; he even painted the altarpiece, which shows the Sermon on the Mount.

Previously, there was a parsonage in Möðrudalur, which was closed down in 1716, but then the place was deserted for several years.
