Staafkerk Eidsborg
De staafkerk van Eidsborg is gebouwd in de 13de eeuw en is een van de best bewaarde staafkerken van Noorwegen en een van de kleinste maar mooiste staafkerken van het land. De in 2007 gerestaureerde kerk maakt deel uit van het openluchtmuseum Vest-Telemark, een complex van 30 gebouwen en boerderijen.
De staafkerk is gewijd aan Nicolaas van Myra, die we natuurlijk vooral als Sinterklaas kennen. In de kerk staat een houten beeld van deze heilige. Het beeld stamt uit de periode rond 1250.

Eidsborg Stave Church (Norwegian: Eidsborg stavkyrkje) is a stave church in Tokke, Vestfold og Telemark county, Norway.
Eidsborg Stave Church is one of the best preserved Norwegian stave churches. Church is located next to the Vest-Telemark Museum in Eidsborg.
The church is estimated to date to between 1250–1300. It was partly reconstructed in the 19th century. The chorus was demolished in 1826; the new choir dates to the period 1845–50. The reconstruction work did not affect the structure or the shape of the church. It was restored in 1927 when painted figures and ornaments dating from the Renaissance and old murals from the 17th century were revealed.
This stave church was originally built around the year 1200 CE, and dedicated to St. Nikolaus, also known as Santa Claus - Telemark Norway

Seen during a trip to Dalen in Telemark, Norway. More information: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eidsborg_Stave_Church
Eidsborg stavkirke er en stavkirke fra midten av 1200-tallet i Lårdal sogn i dagens Tokke kommune i Vestfold og Telemark fylke. Kirken er enskipet og blant de minste i Norge.
From the north side of Dalen, the powerlines stretch into a silent ocean of winter fog, disappearing toward the sheltered valley below. Morning light brushes the ridges of Telemark while the landscape drifts between clarity and cloud. Fun fact: The Dalen area often experiences strong temperature inversions, trapping cold air—and fog—deep in the valley while the hills stand clear above.
Eine Detailaufnahme von der Eidsborg Stabkirche in Norwegen.
Die Stabkirchen gehören für mich, auf jeden Fall, zu den architektonischen Kunstobjekten.
Die Stabkirche Eidsborg gilt als eine der besterhaltenen Stabkirchen Norwegens. Mit 82 Sitzplätzen ist sie eine kleine Gemeindekirche der Propstei Vest-Telemark.[1] Es wird vermutet, dass sie auf einer früheren Kirche aufgebaut wurde. Sie ist erstmals 1354 schriftlich erwähnt, wird jedoch anhand ihrer stilistischen Merkmale auf die zweite Hälfte des 13. Jahrhunderts datiert. Die Kirche umgibt ein Friedhof, der sowohl neue als auch Gräber aus dem Mittelalter beherbergt.

Hier nun noch eine kleine Begebenheit, die uns während einer Führung durch die Eidsborg Stabkirche erzählt wurde.
Dort wurden Dachschindeln ausgewechselt, weil so einige kaputt waren ( ich möchte mal sagen, nach 800 Jahren dürfen die auch ruhig mal kaputt gehen).
Die Dachschindeln, die dann dort eingebaut wurden, waren maschinell hergestellt und sind binnen kürzester Zeit kaputt gegangen, völlig auseinander gebrochen.
Sie mussten sich Leute suchen, die das Holz noch von Hand bearbeiten und diese Schindeln aus dem Holz mit Hand geschnitzt haben.
Diese Schindeln wurden dann eingebaut und diese halten immer noch und gehen nicht kaputt.
Die Menschen wussten noch um den Werkstoff Holz und haben mit diesem Holz gearbeitet.
Auf dem rechten Bild sieht man unter dem Dach auch die Holznägel hervorstehen.
Diese Stabkirchen nötigen mir immer wieder Bewunderung, Achtung und Respekt ab, ich liebe sie und besuche sie immer wieder, sehr sehr gern.
Ich wünsche euch einen schönen Sonntag.
The Eidsborg stave church (Stavkyrkje), near Dalen, in western Telemark. This is one of the best preserved Norwegian stave churches, and is estimated to date to between 1250 and 1300. The church is dedicated to the traveller's patron, St. Nicholas of Bari. It was partly reconstructed in the 19th century. The chorus was demolished in 1826. The new choir dates to the period 1845-50. The reconstruction work did not affect the structure or the shape of the church. It was restored in 1927 when painted figures and ornaments dating from the Renaissance and old murals from the 17th century were revealed. (Wikipedia)

Suleskarvegen er kjent for å være Sørvestlandets høyeste veiforbindelse. Den går fra Suleskar i Sirdal til Brokke i Setesdal og videre over fjellet til Dalen i Telemark og til Høydalsmo hvor den treffer Haukelivegen E134. Følg E 39 til Ålgård, så Fv 45 forbi Dirdal i Høgsfjord og gjennom trolske Hunnedalen. På veien opp hit kan du stoppe hos Byrkjedalstunet og gjerne ta en avstikker til Gloppedalsura, før turen går videre til Sirdal og over høyfjellet, Sørvestlandets tak, til Brokke i Setesdal. Derfra til Rotemo hvor Fv 45 tar deg til fjells og ned til Dalen og videre forbi Eidsborg stavkirke til Høydalsmo. Veiens høyeste punkt er 1050 moh og du opplever variert høyfjellsterreng underveis.
Suleskarvegen ble åpnet i 1990 og feirer således 25 års jubileum i 2015.
The Eidsborg stave church is one of the best-preserved of all the Norwegian medieval stave churches. It was built between 1250 and 1300 AD, and contains various paintings and murals from the Renaissance and the 17th century. A real gem tucked away in a remote corner of Telemark county, in the mountains of south-central Norway.

In Norway we have so many amazing stave churches :D
This image is focus stacked (2 images)
Wide-angle lens did not work for me with respect to composition so im glad the tele zoom worked good :)
At one point we were driving back to Oslo and passed through the Telemark region of Norway where we passed this church and stopped to take a look.
From what I have read, the church is estimated to have been built some time between the years 1250-1300.
Details der Stabkirche kennt ihr schon..........
Hier jetzt die Gesamtansicht.
Sie gilt als eine der besterhaltenen Stabkirchen und wurde vermutlich auf einer früheren Kirche aufgebaut.
Das erste Mal schriftlich erwähnt wird sie 1354, aber anhand ihrer stilistischen Merkmale wird das Baujahr auf die zweite Hälfte des 13. Jahrhunderts datiert.
Die Kirche ist dem St. Nikolaus geweiht.
Ich wünsche euch einen schönen Sonntag.

A stave church is a medieval wooden Christian church building once common in north-western Europe. The name derives from the building's structure of post and lintel construction, a type of timber framing where the load-bearing ore-pine posts are called stafr in Old Norse (stav in modern Norwegian). Two related church building types also named for their structural elements, the post church and palisade church, are often called 'stave churches'.
Originally much more widespread, most of the surviving stave churches are in Norway. The only remaining medieval stave churches outside Norway are those of circa 1500 at Hedared in Sweden and one Norwegian stave church relocated in 1842 to the outskirts of Krummhübel, Germany, now Karpacz in the Karkonosze mountains of Poland. (One other church, the Anglo-Saxon Greensted Church in England, exhibits many similarities with a stave church but is generally considered a palisade church.)
At the base of Type A churches, there are four heavy sill beams on a low foundation of stones. These are interconnected in the corner notch, forming a rigid sill frame. The corner posts or staves (stavene in Norwegian) are cross-cut at the lower end and fit over the corner notches and cover them, protecting them from moisture.
On top of the sill beam is a groove into which the lower ends of the wall planks (veggtilene) fit. The last wall plank is wedge-shaped and rammed into place. When the wall is filled in with planks, the frame is completed by a wall plate (stavlægje) with a groove on the bottom, holding the top ends of the wall planks. The whole structure consists of frames—a sill frame resting on the stone foundation, and the four wall frames made up of sills, corner posts and wall plate.
The wall plates support the roof trusses, consisting of a pair of principal rafters and an additional pair of intersecting "scissor rafters". For lateral bracing, additional wooden brackets (bueknær) are inserted between the rafters.
Every piece is locked into position by other pieces, making for a very rigid construction; yet all points otherwise susceptible to the harsh weather are covered.
The single nave church has a square nave and a narrower square choir. This type of stave church was common at the beginning of the 12th century.
The long church, (Langkyrkje), has a rectangular plan with nave and choir of the same width. The nave will usually take up two-thirds of the whole length. This type was common at the end of the 13th century.
The center post church, (Midtmastkyrkje) has a single central post reaching all the way up to and connected to the roof construction. But the roof is a simple hipped one, without the raised central part of the Type B churches. This variation on the common type of church, found in Numedal and Hallingdal, dates to around 1200.
Single nave churches in Norway: Grip, Haltdalen, Undredal, Hedal, Reinli, Eidsborg, Rollag, Uvdal, Nore, Høyjord, Røldal and Garmo.
The only remaining similar church in Sweden, in Hedared, is of this type and shows similarities with the one from Haltdalen.

The Eidsborg Stave Church, one of the best-preserved of these medieval wooden treasures, as seen in midsummer, beyond a field of blooming fireweed (Chamerion angustifolium).
This church, located in the mountains of western Telemark, was built around 1250-1300 AD, and the name of the church type derives from the buildings' structure of post and lintel construction, a type of timber framing where the load-bearing posts are called "stafr" in Old Norse and "stav" in modern Norwegian.
