Built around 1070, it is one of the oldest stave churches in Norway and so it was also on our list of sights. This church is also very impressive from the outside, which is followed by disappointment when entering. For 90 kroner/adult, 70 kronor/children or 220 kronor for a family, it is actually a valid consideration whether to go to church or “just” look at it from the outside. Inside, a very dark room awaits you in which there isn't much else to be found, except for a tombstone, a speaker's post and a few old murals.
We were told beforehand that there isn't much to see, but we decided to visit the church anyway and it was okay. For us, the thought "if we're here, then we'll go in" counted more.
But everyone should decide for themselves whether pictures from the inside are enough for them or whether they want to see it live.

A remarkably beautiful old stave church. A visit is definitely worthwhile.
