THE STAVE CHURCH IN HAHNENKLEE

Built in the style of Norwegian stave churches, without screws or nails, the architect brought the idea back from his tour of Norway. He wanted that type of church built in Hahnenklee because it was common in all of northern Germany in the Ninth Century, when it first became Christian.

The Hahnenklee Stave Church was constructed by local craftsmen with staves made of locally-grown spruce in 1907 and 1908, and it soon became a popular attraction because of its unusual architecture. Here you can get an impression of its beautiful interior ...
