3 reviews of Stavanger Cathedral

Stavanger Cathedral

Stavanger city center is mostly modern (except the old town that is opposite it). The exception here is the cathedral, Stavanger Cathedral, which dates back from the 12th century, after Sigurd Jorsalfar Stavanger gave it the episcopal rank. Built originally in Anglo-Norman style, it has been restored several times since then. The late-s was later added. XVII includes a flamboyant pulpit and an ornate series of commemorative plaques hanging in the aisles. Walking around this area is very nice, you will get to see various vegetable stalls and flowers, or souvenirs with mostly wool clothing, which

Proliferate in the vicinity, the cathedral is almost at the port and is along the Breiavatnet.

Stavanger Cathedral

Cathédrale de Stavanger

En bas du centre ville commerçant, en face de la gare, toisant le Vagen au nord, et le Breiavatnet à l'ouest, la cathédrale bénéficie d'une position centrale dans l'organisation du centre de Stavanger. Ses murs en pierre grises, ses toits verts respectent l'austérité habituelle des cathédrale norvégienne. Toutefois les gravures sur pierre qui entourent l'édifice, donnent envie d'aller voir à l'intérieur. Le faire est une bonne idée. L'omniprésence du bois donne un charme au lieu, et la qualité du travail de celui-ci (notamment la chaire, splendide) laisse le visiteur pantois.
At the bottom of the shopping city center, opposite the train station, eying the Vagen north and Breiavatnet west, the cathedral boasts a central position in the organization from the center of Stavanger. Its gray stone walls, its green roofs meet the usual austerity Norwegian cathedral. However, the stone carvings that surround the building, make you want to go inside. Doing so is a good idea. The omnipresence of wood gives a charm to the place, and the quality of work of it (including the pulpit, splendid) leaves the visitor speechless.
