Ringebu Stave Church
Ringebu, NO
The Stave church in Ringebu is a monumental cruciform church from the 13th century. The church already had a transept in the Middle Ages, which is not the case with many famous Stave churches. In the 1630s, the church was rebuilt. It was extended to the east with new transepts, a new choir and a sacristy, and the tower and spire were also built at that time. During the restoration of the church, which was completed in 1921, the roof of the nave was removed and the 18th-century wall decorations were restored.
