Built by Bishop Erlendur around 1300, the church was probably the official cathedral of the Faroes until the Reformation. Also called Múrurin (lit. “The Wall”), it is the largest and most beautiful medieval construction in the Faroes. The famous “Kirkjubø Chairs” were part of the furnishing of the cathedral.
