Anchored in History: Bergen

Fantoft Stave Church in Bergen has lived many lives. First constructed around 1150 using intricate Viking-era craftsmanship, it was later relocated piece by piece to save it from demolition — only to be destroyed by fire in 1992. What stands today is a meticulous reconstruction, built using traditional techniques to honor the original design.
