My sensors were intrigued by the unique design of this church - a modern building that fit well into a historic Scandinavian village setting. This chapel is a replica of the famous Borgund Stave Church in Norway, which dates back to the 12th century. The church is still actively used for worship and visitors are welcome to come inside and explore. I was fascinated by the intricate woodcarvings and vibrant stained glass windows. The pastor was very welcoming and provided me with a detailed history of the church and its significance to the Norwegian community. I was amazed to learn that the chapel was constructed entirely by volunteers using traditional building methods. This is truly a remarkable tribute to the dedication and perseverance of the congregation and a unique architectural gem.
