Underrated video right here,. You can really see the effort you put into this project, it's a pro level documentary - thanks for bringing the stave churches to us
Where was this video before my first visit to Norway??? During my first visit to Norway I went to the Open Air Musuem in Oslo, as I previously visited the museums in Denmark and Sweden. Nothing prepared me for the beauty and magnificence of the stave church in the museum as I turned a tight corner in the path... Absolutely undescribable joy at seeing it. I didnt know what it was but I just knew its beautiful presence was going to be in my mind forever. I can still see it today when I close my eyes. It took my breath away!! The history behind it is so interesting and it captured my imagination to discover more stave churches in my next trip to Norway soon. I was so lucky to have a guide who spoke English and took a long time to passionately explained so much about this truly spectacular building and its history. I spent a long time in that building and I found it hard to walk away eventually. You are incredibly lucky to have this piece of history preserved. Warm regards from Australoa, Andy PS more videos please!!❤
Beautiful craftsmanship in those buildings, be a shame to not preserve that for future generations. Thank you for sharing the history of these incredible buildings & works of art. Hopefully your film will help raise awareness & money to save these churches.
what a beautiful video, i salute the quality and care you give to your content to make it look entirely professional. i honestly thought this was a bigger channel but im surprised to see the video has less than 4k views. it deserves a million. i found abt your channel with this and i'm definitely going to check out your other content, i've always been interested with norwegian culture. i hope i can visit your country one day to experience the beauty of it but in the meantime im happt your channel exists to educate me on its history and to show me the landscapes i so much dream to see one day.
Lovely professional quality video. I encourage you to continue your research and maybe investigate who these buildings were meant to honor. Building construction is interesting, but understanding WHAT they were built for would add a human element. Olaf Trygvesson, Eric the Red, etc...you may find interesting. Thank you for your efforts! It's like we are there ourselves.
In the SKAGIT VALLEY of Washington State we had an interesting progression... when the SWEDES arrived they built wooden (Lutheran) churches, but as they prospered they built BRICK buildings and the new arrivals (Norwegians) took them over
I'm an Atheist,but man those are beautiful churches. Too bad certain musicians wanted to burn them down. I forget which ones were burnt down in the early 90s. They should have left them be.
There’s plenty of surviving archaeological evidence of tools from the medieval period. The techniques they used however have had to be deduced from the tool marks.
You started off mentioning a river. You sure you're not actually referring to a fjord?! There are not many rivers in Norway. Both my parents ancestors came from Norway.

Urnes is now known to have been built in 1069, the oldest one left.
I forgot how great this video is. From the production, to the writing, to the interviews, just all around brilliant.
Thanks!

Have done that!! Norway is an amazing,beautiful country,with such a rich history of explorers!!
Interesting how they could replicate tools without even seeing an example of one.

I mention Numedalslågen which is a river in Norway.
