Stiklestad Church is a long brick church from 1150-1200. According to tradition, the church is built with the altar above the place where Olav Haraldsson fell during the battle on July 29, 1030.

It is likely that a wooden church stood in Stiklestad before the stone church was built.
According to tradition, the church was built over the altar, which is believed to have been the place where Olav Haraldsson fell during the battle on July 29, 1030.

Inside, the choir is decorated with the fresco “The Sword and the Lily” (Battle of Stiklestad). In the church, behind the altar, there is a stone that, according to tradition, is the stone on which Olav lay or leaned at the moment of his death, and thus became a place of pilgrimage.
