Mystical Norway: A fall atmosphere around the stave church in Borgund. The wooden building was constructed in 1180 and is dedicated to the apostle Andrew. Located in the province of Sogn og Fjordane in the south west, it is considered one of the most beautiful stave churches in Norway. If you look very closely, you can make out the dragon heads on the roof gables. They were put there to scare away evil spirits. 📍 Lærdal, Norway 🎥 instagram.com/christiantrustrup | DW Travel
