Dimmuborgir, which loosely translated means ?dark castles,? are thought to have been created about 2,300 years ago in the violent throes of an extensive volcanic eruption.
In Icelandic folklore, Dimmuborgir is said to connect earth with the infernal regions. In Nordic Christian lore Dimmuborgir is believed to be the place where Satan landed when he was cast out of the heavens. There he created the catacombs of hell.
