The Svalbard Church is in Longyearbyen, on Spitsbergen, and is the only church in The Svalbard Archipelago of Norway. (This wooden church was built in 1958 to replace the former one, which was destroyed during WWII.) Its real claim to fame is that at 78+°N latitude, it is the northernmost church in the world. * By the way, this is my 3,000th post (!) * [To see more churches from around the world, go here.] |
