Oddernes Kirke
It may not be bigger than the Domkirke, but it's a lot prettier. One of the oldest parish churches of Norway lies 1.5km (1 mile) east of the town center, reached by bus no. 22. The church, whose nave and choir were built around 1040, was dedicated to Saint Olav, the patron saint of Norway. After viewing the church's interior, be sure to wander the grounds, particularly the ancient cemetery with its impressive rune stones.
