Skalholt Church is also known as Skalholt Cathedral is a new church built on the site of ancient churches...one of which served as onew of Iceland's two bishoprics.
There is one gravestone apparent in the space between the church and chapel. The first name on the stone is for Hjonin Gudrun Einarsd who died in 1917.
In the nearby Visitors Center there is also a crypt... from the 17th or 18th century...but the signage does not indicate if the crypt contains a body..and if so, whose?
Name of church or churchyard: Shalholt Church
Approximate Size: Very Small (1-10)
