Korskirken, the Holy Cross #Church – here in the 1920s, but originally from 1150-ish – named so from being one of the few churches said to have a true relic from the cross of Jesus.
The church was damaged in the #Bergen fires of 1198, 1248, 1413, 1582, 1623, 1640 and 1702. Walking past its facade today, you’re seeing the evolution from its Romanesque roots to the later Renaissance touches, smaller and larger rebuilds.
