Bønsnes Kirke – the low part built in 1100, the bell tower much later – 1850s. Interior decor has features from over its lifetime. The roof was being restored when we were there, so the old part was swathed in plastic and the roof tiles in boxes on the ground, but it WAS open for tours (unlike Hole).
