Sogn Benedetg Chapel

Abstract

More akin to a roadside or pilgrimage chapel than a village church, the height of the building at the entrance is only half of what it is at the bottom. Clad in larch shingles, the exterior is entirely closed except for a band of windows beneath the eaves of the shallow roof that caps the building. Its outward appearance reveals almost nothing of the interior. Not even the faintest undulation of the surface gives away any indication of the floor level within. All the visitor is immediately aware of is the shape of the floor plan, a half-figure of eight.
