The church of Holt was a long stone church in the Middle Ages. In 1753, the transverse arms and choirs were built of wood, so that today only the long walls of the nave and the west wall remain of the original stone church. This modification was carried out by the builder Lars Albretsen Øvrenes. The interior of the church, which like many other churches was repainted in the 19th century, was restored in 1952-53 by Finn Krafft.

Paris, FR
Founded in 1379, the Sainte-Chapelle, whose construction began just before the death of Charles V in 1380, was only inaugurated in 1552 during the reign of Henry II, after a very long interruption of work from the beginning of the 15th century. The college of canons was installed in February 1380. The Sainte-Chapelle de Vincennes is intended, like that of the Palais de la Cité in Paris, to house some of the relics of the Passion. In undertaking this project, Charles V wanted to make Vincennes, which was to be the second capital of the kingdom, while hanging on to the Palais de la Cité in Paris. The old traditional Parisian palace remains but, in Vincennes, in an adapted and grandiose setting strongly expressing by its quality, richness and decoration, the ideology of a triumphant monarchy, a new capital was born.
Crediton, GB
The church in Crediton has a history as long as that of any church in Devon. It can be traced in written records back to the early 10th century, and if an 11th century copy of a charter of 739AD is authentic, to almost two centuries earlier. In 739AD Aethelheard, king of the West Saxons, granted land for a monastery. In the early 900's a cathedral was built, almost certainly of wood.
