Fantoft Stave Church

TIME : 2016/2/18 23:05:27

This stave church, in the leafy southern suburb of Paradis, was built in Sognefjord around 1150 and moved here in 1883. It is, in fact, a reconstruction, as the original fell victim to an early 90s black metal/neopagan church burning. The adjacent cross , originally from Sola in Rogaland, dates from 1050.

From Bergen, take the tram to Fantoft (two-hour ticket Nkr36).
