The first church only last two years before it burned down but was quickly rebuilt. However the church seemed to particularly susceptible to fire and subsequently burned down in 1670, 1758 and 1800. It was always rebuilt and seemed to be fine until 1944 when the church as well as most of the city of Bergen was destroyed when a German ship exploded nearby. The structure was rebuilt and seems to be doing just fine at the present although who knows what the future holds. The church is lovely inside with a huge organ and beautiful windows as well as a cool lugubriousity curiously juxtaposed with a cheery and bright décor. There is a really bizarre but cool angel that comes up and down from the ceiling and all kinds of wonderful stuff to look at. A special sort of church that has a fascinating history of perseverance and dedication. Hopefully this present incarnation of the building will be able to last the decades without any future catastrophes.
