Stave Churches from Norway
On the left, you see Heddal Stave Church. Heddal stave church is not only a medieval architonic masterpiece, but a living church for
todays congregation as well. The church is the largest of the 28 still remaining stavechurches
in Norway. It appears to have been some 750 - 1200 stave churches in Norway, but in the 19th
century most of them were replaced by new - and more "modern" churches.
On the right, you see Borgund Stave Church. Borgund Stave Church is the best preserved Norwegian medieval
stave church. It was built between 1200 and 1250.
