This huge wooden church, whose construction was completed in 1848, can accommodate up to 5,000 worshippers (3,000 of whom are seated). It is the largest in the world, and the measurements of the building speak for themselves: 45 m long by 42 m wide and 27 m high under the dome. Why such a big church in such a small village? Legend has it that the architect got confused between feet and meters as a unit of measurement! Its construction required the collaboration of all the men of the village aged between 15 and 60 years old during 3 years.
