The gate to the cemetery that surrounds St. Olav's Church (Ólavskirkjan) is made of iron and stained glass panels.
In the middle of the gate there is a blue cross. The blue color is dominant, but also brown, red and green colors are seen as patterns.

The gate is made by the artist Tróndur Patursson, who was born on the farm next to the cemetery.
