"Norwegian Stave churches were built just after the close of the Viking Age in Scandinavia in the 1100 and 1200’s. The technique of using vertical posts--or staves--had been modified over time to become wooden architectural works of art. The church in Moorhead is a full-scale replica of the Hopperstad Church located in the town of Vik, Norway.
"The replica church is a quintessential labor of love. Guy Paulson began carving for the church in January of 1997. 'I have been carving for about 25 years, so a challenging project like this intrigued me,' Paulson says, 'It's something that honors my family's Christian heritage.' It was dedicated in 1998 as a gift to the Center and the city of Moorhead from the Paulson family.
"The carvings for the church began in January 1997, and on-site construction of the church started in August 1997. All carvings were done by Guy Paulson. The church is constructed of cedar, redwood, and pine."
