Magnus Cathedral — Roofless Walls
Pointed stone openings survive in the roofless walls of Magnus Cathedral at Kirkjubøur.

The story behind the place
Look through the empty arches and imagine the medieval community around these heavy stone walls. Kirkjubøur was an important religious centre in the Faroe Islands, and the ruined cathedral remains one of its most striking traces. The open sky above the masonry is part of the landmark you see today.
