Description

This is part of a roof line of a stave church in Moorhead, MN. It is a full-scale replica of the Hopperstad Church located in the town of Vik, Norway.
Norwegian Stave churches were built just after the close of the Viking Age in Scandinavia in the 1100 and 1200’s. The technique of using vertical posts-or staves-had been modified over time to become wooden architectural works of art.
