Built around 1100, when this Viking country was barely Christianized, this church is a curious mixture. The magnificent portal is carved with knotwork and dragon heads. Inside, a carved seat depicts Sigurd helping Gunnar conquer Brynhild, protected by a rampart of flames. Siegfried, Gunther and Brunehilde are the three heroes who inspired Wagner to create the main characters of the Ring of the Nibelungen. It's well worth a visit.

Une des plus belle Eglise de Norvège
Cette Église "en bois debout" est une des plus belle de Norvège. Elle est en très bon état. Le lieu est calme et verdoyant.

Magnifique église en bois debout. Bien que le prix soit un peu élevé, nous avons eu accès à une visite guidée incluse, fort intéressante. Les alentours sont également sympathiques puisque l'église est couplé à un musée en plein air (fermes anciennes reconstruites).
