Once an ancient pagan temple stood on this site. In 1271, a Gothic-style stone-built church grew up here. This church has suffered, beginning with a 1536 Lutheran Reformation that destroyed much of its original architecture. What remains is a timbered tower, a Renaissance pulpit, a stone altar, and a triptych, along with fine woodcarvings and a painted ceiling. It's a miracle that anything is left after an aerial attack by the invading Nazis destroyed most of Voss -- but the church was relatively undamaged. The church lies a 5-minute walk east of the train station.
