Tynset Church

Tynset Church was built after the old church of 1708 burned down in 1792. The church was consecrated in 1795, and the master-builder of the Røros Copper Works, Peder Ellingsen, supervised the construction work. The church in Røros was a model, but in a smaller size and with other materials.
