Missing some background on this church. It is in some of the central sources for Stavkirke.org but they don't have any pages for it. Agtfjott 22:02, 25 August 2005 (UTC)
It could be interesting to know what kind of stave church it is. Most likely it is of the Borgund-type. At last it seems to be so from the outside shape. Ref Borgund stave church and Urnes stave church. The later are on UNESCO's list of world heritage. Agtfjott 22:05, 25 August 2005 (UTC)
- "During its re-erection, significant alterations were made to adapt it to its new purpose as a catholic church, and at the same time it was also restored to a supposedly more original state."
Is there any source for this claim? I can't seem to find any source, although it is known that I. C. Dahl brokered the deal because the church was in good shape. Which somewhat contradicts the sale in the first hand. — John Erling Blad (jeb) 01:35, 14 November 2005 (UTC)
- The church was never transformed into a catholic one, even today in catholic Poland it still serves as a lutheran church. Rüdiger Sander 20:43, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
