Sant Olaf Kirke

St. Olaf's is modeled after a traditional Norwegian stave church with multiple steep roofs, lots of wooden details, and even dragon's heads at the ends of the upper peak, but it's more recent and not really a stave church structurally. It's also Anglican, which sort of sets it apart. But it's a central feature of this little community and big tourist draw.

Not that I had any clue during our visit, but according to Wikipedia, it may have inspired the scene of Elsa's coronation in Frozen.
