The old stave church at Fantoft, originally built in Fortun in Sogn in 1150 and moved to Fantoft in 1883, burnt down on the 6th of June 1992. Fantoft Stave Church has now been rebuilt just as is was before the fire.

Situated at Fantoft, outside center of Bergen. If you are going on your own you have to pay attention for the road sign as it may not be so easy to locate the stave church after you have left the parking space.
