Heddal 1/3

One could probably dedicate an entire feed to just one of the major Norwegian stave churches. I'm trying all I can to hold back a bit, but it's just coming on too strong today ...

Sick, I know, but one of my favourite smells is tar. All Norwegian stav churches are coated in it, and it smells soooo good.

On my way home I drove past the largest of the 28 stave churches we have, Heddal from about 1200.
It is said to have been built from four tools.

Yesterday the US fam got to see a nice stave church in the folk zoo in Oslo, but today we saw a wild one in its natural habitat. #Heddal #StaveChurch
