Røros Church, Stone church in Røros Municipality, Norway
The octagonal whitewashed stone church with 1,600 seats stands as the fifth largest religious building in the Church of Norway system.
Completed in 1784 with funding from Røros Copper Works, the church construction cost equaled 425 annual mining worker salaries at that time.
The church features intricate woodwork crafted by Peder Ellingsen, including detailed designs on both the pulpit and altar installations.
