“The Land of Fire and Ice:” Exploring the Wonders of Iceland
Freedom to Practice Religion
Icelanders have a long-standing reputation for being open-minded when it comes to religion. Not only do many in the country believe in the existence of elves and fairies, but a significant portion of the population still identifies as members of the Church of Iceland. This is the officially established Christian church in the country and is also known as the National Church.
The Evangelical Lutheran Church of Iceland has been instrumental in influencing and shaping Icelandic society, and since 1874 freedom of religion has been enshrined in the country’s constitution. Iceland’s acceptance of new ideas is further highlighted with the existence of the 17th-century Grafarkirkja Church.
