Placed in the southern part of the project area in continuity with the ancient church, the proposal for the New Church of Våler by Francesco Fiotti architects attempts to recover not only the orientation of it, but also the memory. Their design makes reference to the boat as a symbol of Christianity that welcomes and protects within it the faithful; the Drakkar as tribute at the exploratory tradition of the Norwegian people. More images and architects’ description after the break.
The building consists of two main sections: in the first one is situated the church room and its main functions such as baptism, funerals, choir, sacristy; in the second one are located the church square and other services such as info point, cloakroom, wc, storage, technical room.
