    • Kollafjørður Fjord
    • 1 Church of Kollafjørður (Kollafjarðar kirkja). The church is a typical Faroese wooden church from 1837. Standing close to the coast, it is a black-tarred wooden building with a turf roof, white painted windows, and a small white bell tower on the roof's western end. Inside, everything is made of unvarnished wood. There are a few spots of blue colouring on the pulpit but otherwise nothing has been painted. The little ship hanging under the vault was donated as a tribute by the parents of a 25-year-old who drowned off the coast of Iceland. Kollafjarð Church (Q20619296) on Wikidata
