When you think of Norway, you probably think of “fjords”, Vikings, and snow-capped mountains – not majestic architecture that looks like it comes straight from a fairy tale.

The varying styles of architecture range from Stave churches of the Middle Ages, to the eerie natural waterfalls and traditionally built wooden houses of the 19th century. The history of architecture in Norway certainly tells a fascinating story. Viking craftsmanship, religion, geography, and locally sourced materials all played vital roles in creating these beautiful masterpieces.
