Tingvoll Church

Tingvoll Church is a stone church in Romanesque and Gothic style that was built around 1200. The walls have an extensive system of corridors, possibly for liturgical use, which is unique to church buildings in the Nordic countries. An exterior balcony high up on the choir wall also makes the church special. The interior is rich. The pulpit is from the late Renaissance (around 1660) with figures from the Spanish Baroque.
