Very interesting spot. Construction going on when we visited, on the outside facade, but inside still very accessible, although stain glass windows also removed for renovation going on. Worth the small price for admission, just a nice very old church.
I always love going to these places as I travel. They tell a story about the history of the people that settled there and the art and sculptures are just fantastic. The people were extremely friendly as well.
Extremely old. Awesome carvings. And loved the fact that while the stained glass windows are being restored they have been replaced by paper designs by local students. Right in the centre so no trouble to find.
If visiting Stavanger, one must put the cathedral on the to do list. It is older than Notre Dame. A very impressive building. It does cost 50 krone per person to enter but worth the price.
You can tell it's old (XII century) and very authentic, even if not the grandest you have been to. Some very interesting details inside, such as wooden sculptures and stained glasses.
Amazing place to visit. Really nice and peaceful. You can have a great time looking at this beautiful Cathedral learning from it's history and enjoying the amazing decorations.
