View from the entrance of Dimmuborgir looking into the lava formations. The formation of these extraordinary lava cliffs and pillars stems from molten lava flowing over a pond in the eruption of Lúdentaborgir and Þrengslaborgir some 2300 years ago. The molten lava trapped the water underneath and steam issued through vents in the lava and formed these pillars, which then remained standing even after the pond and the crust around them had disappeared.

If you walk up the steps to the church you will notice that it is a cave open in both ends with a high-dome shaped roof. It looks like it is man-made, but it is actually a lava cave, which looks a little like a Gothic church. Re-edited in 2025 to utilize new techniques learned since 2018.
