When I heard about this place I was really curious

When I heard about this place I was really curious and wondering why they have a Norwegian church here. I couldn’t remember reading anything related to Norwegians in Poland, so I was happy to finally get to know more about it 😊
Wang Church was built in a village called Vang in Norway and in the 19th century it was considered too small for the locals, and the renovations would be expensive so they decided to sell it. Frederick William IV, the king of Prussia at the time, bought the church and he asked it to be transported to Berlin. However the plans changed and it was moved to the Karkonosze Mountains. A rock tower was added to it so it could protect the church against the strong winds coming from the mountains. As there is no V in polish alphabet the name Vang changed to Wang.

It is a beautiful work of Scandinavian architecture and old Nordic art. Some hikes in the Karkonosze Mountains have their starting point at Wang Church.. it is a place worth seeing if you are in Karpacz 🏔
