Rosekyrkja
1 people visited sight
This octagonal white church was built in 1789, and its interior is particularly lavish. The walls, columns, ceiling, gallery and pulpit are covered in acanthus vines and bunches of grapes, circles and roses in sunshine yellow and sky blue. Biblical motifs are painted between the roses and vines. The nickname ‘the Rose Church’ comes from the traditional Norwegian rose painting in the Hallingdal style.
