Our chathedral. Unusual architecture amongs the European Chathedrals. And you will have a statue of Leif Erikson right in front. Bound to take some good pictures.

Regardless, it's a nice location, surrounded by plenty of good coffee shops and restaurants. I do believe it's possible to take a trip up to the bell tower, but I haven't tried it myself.
