Borgund's Church

Borgund's church was built in the 13th century with an elongated nave and a narrower square choir. In the 17th century, the church was extended with a crossbeam to the north, and a porch on the south side of the nave with a burial chamber under the floor. In 1868-68, a new transverse arm was built to the south. In 1904 the church was burnt down and only the walls remained. The church was rebuilt using the old walls.
