This 12th century Romanesque church is dedicated to St. Olav. According to legend, the carved face on the north-western façade represents the same canonized king. Another legend tells that the church was built by a nymph who, after completing her work, had the misfortune to fall to her death. Where the nymph fell, the grass has never grown again. A nice visit for the whole family if you are in the area.

Région magnifique. Le télémark est de toute beauté. Nous avons logé dans un camping avant d'arriver à seljord . L'église est très belle et paisible . C'est très calme et entouré de montagnes. Belles randonnées. Quelques musées et romantisme assuré.
We loved this stopover when we made Norway. The church is beautiful, as well as the environment, legend pleasant. It is a pity that it was closed...
We could not see the seven tails representing the seven combinations of Huldra with mortals. It seems that it always seeks the 8th husband. People, beware! If you see a pretty daughter but whose tail cow (or fox) exceeds under the underskirts...
On the other hand I do not find the meaning of the remains of paintings on the exterior walls. If someone has an explanation?
Two passionate of Norway.
