Fjære church, Grimstad, Norway
Fjære church, Grimstad, Norway

In this cemetery lie my ancestors for generation after generation.
The first church at Fjære was likely a wooden church with a stone altar.
That church was taken down at some point an replaced with the present church, likely around the year 1150.
The old stone altar was kept on in the new church and is still in use today.
Under the church, there is a crypt with 26 bodies buried in it, mainly important people from the community during the 17th century.
