Trondenes Church (Norwegian: Trondenes kirke) is the northernmost medieval stone church of Norway and the world's northernmost surviving medieval building.
[1][2] Though frequently referred to as a 13th-century church, dating based on dendrochronology places its completion shortly after 1434.
In the late Medieval period, Trondenes served as the main church centre of Northern Norway.
The church is best known for its rich decorations, including three gothic triptychs, one of which was earlier attributed to the German Hanseatic artist Bernt Notke, although modern art historians now doubt the attribution.
[3] The baroque pulpit is equipped with an hourglass to allow the minister to time long sermons.
