Tingvoll Fjord

Tingvoll Fjord cuts through the coast of Nordmøre, connecting its inland shores with the sea routes towards Kristiansund. On its northern shore stands Tingvoll Church, a stone building dating from around 1180. It served as the regional church of medieval Nordmøre, and its marble and limestone details show the care invested in its construction. The fjord offered a route to the church and the farms around it in a country where water often linked communities more directly than the surrounding hills.
