Fana kirke (church) at night - January 2008

Fana Church is located approx. 20 kilometre south of Bergen. The existing stone building celebrated 850 years anniversary in 2003, but the church building history is long and complicated. Historians assert that the church has been rebuilt and enlarged several times.

Fana Church was mentioned in writings for the first time in 1228. Parts of the existing church building are from the Romance époque, and the walls show signs of there having been a stone building at the site, most likely a church, before 1220. Due to this, it is believed that the core of the church was built in the second half of the 12th century.[

See a lot of interesting photos from Bergen in this photo gallery with detailed descriptions to each photo of the most beautiful areas, monuments, buildings and other attractions.
