Ski

Ski lies on a ridge in Follo, south of Oslo, amid the farms of eastern Norway. Its Romanesque stone church was built in the twelfth century at a central point in the settlement. Originally it consisted of a nave and chancel, with small windows and thick walls of stone. After the Reformation of 1537 it came under the state, while continuing to serve the parish. The old royal road later passed the church, connecting the district with neighbouring communities.
