Vang Church In Karpacz - Old Columns

Karpacz, Poland

The four columns placed in the middle of the main nave and the ones on its both sides may have been the masts of the Viking long boats. They come from the 12th century.

Wang Church followed the best examples of the Scandinavian sacral architecture and is now a unique work of the old Nordic art. Built in the way the Viking longships were, that is without a single nail, it features wooden bolts and dovetails. The church was built from the Norwegian pine rich in resin which reveals unusual endurance.
