About 8 kilometres from Reykhólar on the Southern peninsula in East Barðastrandarsýsla district is the church Staðarkirkja.

In previous years there was a major farm there as well as the Catholic church Ólafskirkja. A vicarage was at Staður until 1948 when it was moved to Reykhólar, where there had formerly been a subsidiary church belonging to Staður.
