Did you know that before there were around 1,000 stave churches in Norway, but that there are only 28 left today? Experience one of these unique constructions, taken straight out of the Viking Age, at Fantoft Stave Church, just 20 minutes outside Bergen city center. This spectacular church was originally built in Fortun in Sogn in 1150, but was moved to Fantoft in 1883, before it burned down in 1992. The building as you see today has been rebuilt just as it was before the fire, and even has the original the crucifix that survived the fire.

This church is a beutiful example of the very unique medeaval building style of wooden churches in Norway. The original church was burned down in vandalism, but the remake is equally beautiful! You can easily get there with the Light city rail (Byanen) or you can go there by bike. I did that when I went to see it.
