Ludo,
Very impressive! I saw a bunch of stave churches last Augst when I was in
Norway, and remember thinking that building one would be a great LEGO project!
Medieval Norwegian architecture seems to have things in common with older
Japanese Architecture - something about the layers of roofs and the way the
diagonal lines come together.
Nice build!

Hi,
Originaly i didn’t crosspost it to these locations, only to Architecture.
I uploaded some pictures of my latest building, build after the Stavechurch
of Heddal - Notodden - Norway, located at abouth 60 km West of Oslo. The
original church is from around 1250 and there’s still 30% of the original
wood in this building. Not one nail is used to fix the whole building.

To remain a minimum of ‘arches’ in the gallery, is it a bit larger build than
minifig scale. Otherwise i needed to modify a lot of bricks, something i
don’t like to do. For a picture of the real church, i recommend a Google
picture surch with the name ‘Heddal’ in the textbox.
The model is build after pictures and plans of the original church from 1953
- 1954. I would like to thank the Norwegian “Riksantikvaren” (Cultural
Heritage) for sending me a copy of the plans.

I hope you enjoy it.

Ludo Soete
