Lom Stave Church (Norwegian: Lom stavkyrkje) is a stave church situated in Lom municipality in the Gudbrandsdal district of Norway. The church is a triple nave stave church that uses free standing inner columns to support a raised section in the ceiling of the main nave. This type of church is amongst the oldest Stave Churches. The church was first situated in a sub valley to the valley Gudbrandsdal in Oppland County, some 60 kilometers (37 mi) west of Otta. The church dates to approximately second part of 12th century, but was rebuilt into a cruciform church during the 17th century. The chancel was decorated in 1608, and the nave was enlarged towards west in 1634. The cross section was added in 1663, but this was made in stave like frame work. A complete restoration also took place in 1933, and a smaller one in 1973. This stave church is actually one of just a very few stave churches of which the original medieval crest with a dragon head still survives.
Proche des rives de la rivière Nam Khan, le « Elephant Village Sanctuary » (également connu sous le nom de projet Elephant Park) travaille à assurer un avenir pacifique pour les éléphants sauvés du Laos. Ce sont des éléphants retirés du travail de l’exploitation forestière, souvent brutale, ils sont alors donnés à une maison dans la jungle où ils peuvent se reposer et récupérer. Certains des éléphants du sanctuaire sont mutilés ou blessés et ont une chance de réhabilitation avec un vétérinaire à temps plein sur place.
Trouver le site de l’Elephant Village Sanctuary : le village des éléphants est situé dans le village de Xieng Lom, à 15 km au sud-est de Luang Prabang près de la rivière Nam Khan au Laos. Remarques : le prix de votre visite contribuera à soutenir les éléphants (avec neuf éléphants sauvés du travail de l’exploitation forestière et avec une nouvelle maison dans le parc jusqu’à présent). Le sanctuaire est privé sans le soutien de toutes les autres organisations de sorte qu’il ne dépend vraiment que de l’aide des visiteurs pour continuer à fonctionner et offrir un avenir heureux à plus d’éléphants.

The former SP Lompoc and White Hills branches come off of the Coast Line at Surf and are only a total of 14 miles combined. But in that 14 miles, they feature surfside views, lush California vegetable fields, down the street operation on Laurel Ave and N A Street in Lompoc, and a 3% grade where they use an old SP caboose as a shoving platform to back up N A Street. And they do it all at less than 10 mph so you can see it all in just a couple of hours. The downside is that it only happens on Thursday mornings as the only customer is served just once a week on Thursday mornings.
The customer is a diatomaceous earth mine now owned by Celite Corp that has been at the end of the White Hills branch since they negotiated to have the branch built in the 1920’s. The local is ready to leave Guadalupe as soon as the morning southbound Amtrak Surfliner #774 clears ahead of them.
Here they're about the middle of the almost 2 miles of street running they have on Laurel Ave.
Don't let the cloud of dust fool you. They're just crawling along, it's easy to get multiple views on tehis street. Being dry California it is very dusty..
Todas estas lomas son cenizas volcánicas --acá bajo nieve-- acumuladas desde Puyehue - El Caulle - Casablanca y todos los otros volcanes del barrio en los últimos miles de años.
Si miran este mapa del Googlemaps podrán ver la fisura del Caulle, en actual erupción, en donde se distinguen las coladas de lava. Si tienen tiempo, a la derecha, abajo, encontrarán la caldera del Puyehue y pueden seguir mirando por los alrededores la gran cantidad de volcanes, algunos casi tapados por la vegetación de los bosques de esa zona.

Der Kalksteinbruch auf dem Berg Kobyla im Böhmischen Karst wurde bis 1929 betrieben. Im Verlauf des Steinbruchbetriebs wurden dabei Karsthöhlen aufgeschlossen (Chlupáčova sluj und Zlomená sluj), die außergewöhnliche prähistorische Funde erbrachten. Neben Werkzeugen steinzeitlicher Menschen sind auch die Knochenreste ausgestorbener Tierarten (Löwen, Höhlenbären, Pelznashörner etc.) bemerkenswert. Seit 1970 ist der Steinbruch hinsichtlich seiner Bedeutung für die Archäologie, aber auch Geologie unter Schutz gestellt. Zu erreichen ist die Bruchsohle mittels eines Förderstollens auf der Nordseite.
The 13th day, another sunny day, and loads of great pictures including the impressive Jotunheimen scenic drive and glacier landscape! I started the morning in Lom to visit this stave church. Stave churches are unique for Norway, and the most closest thing to Viking ships! (the landscape shots will come later, I have posted so many already, you might get bored with them.)
Norway, a stunningly beautiful country. Around every corner a chance for a scenic image, forcing me from time to time to stop every kilometer to get out of my car, sometimes with screeching brakes, and sometimes forcing me to curse because there was no place to stop.
Lovely valleys, bare mountains and cold winds, snow packs, glaciers, beautiful lakes, and then there are the enchanting fjords that never stop to amaze. The most beautiful country of Europe, for me no doubt about that, with only one minor aspect, which is the weather. During my month of traveling I only had 4 really nice days, the rest of the time clouds, rain, and very changeable! Still no regret, and I will go back to make even more than the 3500 pictures that I took this time.
Another very active vacation that took me to the south west up to Trondheim in a sort of triangle between Oslo- Trondheim and Bergen with the whole route visible here (www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10153668247101759&set...).
AUTUMN🍁
Over the years I've seen 18 stav churches. They are all beautiful to see. This one at Lom I saw several times. Also in 2024, but not like this anymore. Those trees are almost all gone. Only a few at the right are still there🍁
But I always can look back at the memories I have left of this one🌞
I have so many more autumn pictures, but after this I will show you a few of the stavchurches I saw.
So my next series is STAVE CHURCH🇳🇴

It was first mentioned in writing in 1270, but studies of the oldest surviving pinewood parts have shown that its construction began around 1158. It was a basilica-style stave church with a rectangular floor plan and a low, surrounding arcade (svalgang). Structural changes were made after the Reformation, dated around 1537 in Norway. The choir received a richly decorated ceiling in 1608, and the entrance to the choir was also decorated at the same time. In 1634, a wooden extension was added to the west side after the arcade was removed. In 1663, side aisles with upright wooden structures were added to the north and south aisles. This gave the church a cruciform floor plan. In 1664, the bell tower was built, which required stiffeners in the main body. To conceal these from view, the ceiling had to be suspended. Three bronze bells were hung.
It is dedicated to Mary, John the Baptist and Saint Olav.
Sie wurde erstmals schriftlich 1270 erwähnt, Untersuchungen der ältesten erhaltenen Kiefernholzteile haben ergeben, dass ihr Bau jedoch um 1158 begann. Es handelte sich um eine Stabkirche im Basilikastil mit einem rechteckigen Grundriss und einem umlaufenden niedrigen Laubengang (Svalgang). Nach der Reformation, in Norwegen um 1537 datiert, erfolgten bauliche Veränderungen. Der Chor erhielt 1608 eine reich dekorierte Decke und gleichzeitig schmückte man auch den Eingang in den Chorraum aus. 1634 kam auf der Westseite ein hölzerner Anbau hinzu, nachdem der Laubengang entfernt worden war. 1663 folgten nördlich und südlich Seitenschiffsanbauten mit aufrecht stehendem Holzwerk. So bekam das Gotteshaus einen kreuzförmigen Grundriss. 1664 wurde der Glockenturm errichtet, für den im Grundkörper Versteifungen erforderlich wurden. Um diese den Blicken zu entziehen, musste die Decke abgehängt werden. Drei Bronzeglocken wurden aufgehängt.
Sie ist Maria, Johannes dem Täufer und dem heiligen Olav geweiht.
Der Kalksteinbruch "Homolák" wurde in den 1890er Jahren durch Alois Homola aus dem nahen Dorf Vinařice eröffnet. Der hier gewonnene Kalkstein gehörte der Devon-Formation an. Die hohe Reinheit des Kalkgesteins veranlasste 1918 die Škoda Werke den Steinbruch zu erwerben, um das hier geförderte Material als Zuschlagmittel in den Schmelzöfen der firmeneigenen Stahlwerke zu verwenden. Erst Ende der 1950er Jahre wurde die Förderung mechanisiert, so dass Großlochsprengungen und Eimerkettenförderung und Bagger eine Steigerung der Produktion auf um die 220.000 Tonnen jährlich ermöglichten. Nachdem die Gewinnung von Kalkstein im Jahr 1984 endete, begann sich aufgrund der Verstopfung des natürlichen Abflusses ein See zu bilden. Die romantische Kulisse wird jedoch durch die Verfüllung mit Abraummassen aus dem nahen Großsteinbruch "Čertovy schody" allmählich zerstört.

The church is a great place to visit if you visit the pretty little town of Lom. On our trip it was the first major place we came to after we had crossed the Sognefjell.
