“A VIRTUAL TOUR OF THE HOPPERSTAD STAVE CHURCH”WITH MARKUS KRUEGER August 11 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm FREE Completed in 2001, the Hopperstad Stave Church Replica in Moorhead, Minnesota, stands as a testament to Norwegian culture and heritage in the Midwest. It serves as an educational tool in the local community and is operated by Clay County’s Historical and Cultural Society. Our virtual tour through Moorhead’s Hopperstad Stave Church will touch on what makes Norway’s stave churches so unique in the world of architecture, why this church was recreated in Fargo-Moorhead, how the Vikings converted to Christianity, the Medieval church, the Protestant Reformation, America’s Scandinavian heritage, and whatever else time allows. This is a virtual event via Zoom. The registration link for the ZOOM presentation can be found on the events page of their website at www.livsreise.org/events
