      This church (and around 50 others) were burnt by members of the Norwegian black metal scene. This was the first one to be burnt and they believed that it was built on ancient Pagan/Viking sacred grounds and that Christianity was destroying their heritage and culture. The charred ruins of this church were pictured on the cover of Burzum’s EP ‘Aske’. The man behind Burzum was convicted of burning 4 churches, but he is suspected of being behind more of the arsons, including this one. The black metal scene was very interesting.

    I remember this when I was in the black metal scene they burned old church's. It's because black metal is mostly satanic or anti Christian and dark and evil stuff. There was murders, suicide etc. Glad to be out of that evil scene . I'm glad they built that back up if it's dovetailed it's made to last and quality which is difficult to come by nowadays.

    In the book Lords of Chaos by Michael Moynihan and Didrik Søderlind, Varg Vikernes (the supposed church burner) states this: "...That was the 6th of June, and everyone linked it to Satanism, because of the 6-6 and it was on the 6th day of the week. What everyone overlooked was that on the 6th of June, year 793, in Lindisfarne in Britain was the site of the first known Viking raid in history, with Vikings from Hordaland... ...Nobody linked it to that -nobody. That church is built on holy ground, a natural circle and a stone horg [a heathen altar]. They planted a big cross on the top of the horg and built the church in the midst of the holy place..."
    This kid was delusional and wanted to impose his personal views on what modern Norway should not be and reclaim it's pagan roots.

  • @LynnE507

    Wasn't it Varg and Euronymous from Mayhem that burnt this particular church? I think the reasoning was to gain publicity and the general dislike Varg had towards the Christian religion. Varg burnt down 3 other churches (I think) besides this one.
