Rose Church

TIME : 2016/2/18 23:05:41

Constructed in 1789 on the site of an earlier stave church, elements of which were retained, it is unassuming from the outside. Inside comes the surprise: the roof, walls and every last pillar are sumptuously painted with scenes from the Bible and portraits of saints in an engagingly naive interpretation of high baroque. On the Rv650 between Valldal and Ålesund.
