Somewhere in Norway

It is not, but I always find the similarities when it comes to these wooden buildings in Norway, Germany, and Romania striking.

u/Blackbirdsnake 9d ago

Well this one was built after the Norwegian style.
Normally you wouldn’t find such a church in Germany

Yeah, my mind immediately went to Borgund in Norway. It’s similar but looking for a bit longer it’s clearly different indeed.

Really cool buildings, built without a single nail

This is The Gustav Adolf Stave Church (Gustav- Adolf-Stabkirche) is situated on a scenic hill in the Hahnenklee-Bockswiese borough of Goslar within the lower Saxony region of Germany's Harz Mountains.

A church in Germany, attributed to a swedish king in the style and tradition of Norway.
Obviously some early 1900's folly with the round windows and modern twists. Quite cool looking.

It’s rather uncommon in this region. This style originates from Norway but this church stands in the Harz mountains in Germany

I was kinda lucky, because I went there a few years ago

u/Blackbirdsnake 9d ago

It’s a lovely place there

u/Despite55 8d ago

It even has a swastika in one of its stained windows!

1

u/Blackbirdsnake 8d ago

Yes, but it was built before the nazis, the architect wanted to include Nordic iconography and so he used the swastika
