St. Nicholas Church

St. Nicholas Church stands as a basilica with Roman columns, plastered walls, and a modified choir section from the 13th century.

The church, constructed between 1150 and 1200, functioned as an election site for Norway's first national assembly in 1814.

The structure represents religious architecture from medieval Norway and forms part of the Sister Churches complex in Granavollen village.

The church building accommodates 250 people and remains open for regular services, with scheduled visiting hours throughout the week.

A medieval stone tower called Klokketårnet stands in the churchyard, potentially serving as a defense structure during earlier times.
