Atop an icy plateau, these 12 concrete cubes punch through the stark landscape. The only structure for miles, this installation can’t be missed from the winding mountain pass.

This is Heavier Mountain, a piece of art by local artist Davíð fra Davíðsstaðir. It represents native residents of East Iceland and their relationship to the region’s long, dark winters. Originally, a television sat on each cube, but all that remains are the cubes themselves and Davíðsstaðir’s artist statement.

The monument lies about 16 kilometers from Seydisfjordur, a seaside town that is popular during the summer months.
