Stemshaug kirke Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

cervisvenator: Hi

While I feel that Geocaching.com should hold the location for the cache owner and block other cachers from placing a cache in the area around this cache for a reasonable amount of time, we can’t do so forever.

Nothing seems to happen with this cache listing, so it is now archived, so that someone else can place a cache in the area, and geocachers can once again enjoy visiting this location. Also, if it hasn’t been done already, please pick up any remaining cache bits as soon as possible.

If the owner wants it reopened, send me an e-mail and I’ll be happy to unarchive the cache listing if it still satisfies the requirement/guidelines.

(This reviewer note is in English so non-Norwegian cache owners, geocachers and cache reviewers can understand what it says.)

Thanks for your understanding,

Geocache Description:

Stemshaug kirke

NOR:
Stemshaug kirke er en flott kirke hvor cacheeier selv er døpt, likeså hans barn. Mange er de dåper, konfirmasjoner, bryllup, gravferder og konserter som cacheeier har deltatt i. Så dette er en kirke som settes pris på!

Stemshaug kirke ble bygd i 1908 som en basilika i reisverk, med arkitene H.J. Sparre og Tellesbo. Byggmesteren som hadde ansvaret for byggingen var Lars Mogstad. Totalt 300 sitteplasser innehar kirken.

Tegningene til kirken var opprinnelig tegnet for Sæle kirke i Sogn (innviet i 1903).

Den flotte altertavla er skåret i dragestil av Daniel Skipnes i 1914. Bilde av altertavla.

I 1958 ble kirken oppusset innvendig og fikk utsmykning av kunsmaler (og organist) Olav Halse.

For spesielt interesserte finnes en fin artikkel om kirken (orgel og organister) skrevet i forbindelse med kirkens 100-årsjubileum i 2008 - Stemshaug kirke
