Kyrkjetorget (71°54′S 6°57′E / 71.900°S 6.950°E / -71.900; 6.950) is a flattish ice-filled amphitheatre on the east side of Jøkulkyrkja Mountain in the Mühlig-Hofmann Mountains of Queen Maud Land, Antarctica. It was mapped from surveys and air photos by the Sixth Norwegian Antarctic Expedition (1956–60) and named Kyrkjetorget (the church market place).[1]
