About Reykjavík City Hall
Reykjavík City Hall opened in 1992 on the northern shore of Tjörnin. Architects Margrét Harðardóttir and Steve Christer designed the building to form an interface between the dense old city and the natural environment of the pond. Its most popular visitor feature is the enormous three-dimensional map of Iceland displayed on the ground floor.
