High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! A stave church is a medieval wooden church with a post and beam construction related to timber framing. The wall frames are filled with vertical planks. The load-bearing posts (stafr in Old Norse) have lent their name to the building technique. Related church types are post church and churches with palisade walls. All of the surviving stave churches except one are found in Norway, but related church types were once common all over northwestern Europe. The only remaining medieval stave church outside of Norway is one from 15th century located at Hedared in Sweden and one Norwegian stave church relocated and re-erected in 1842 in the outskirts of Krummhubel in Germany, now Karpacz in the Karkonosze mountains of Poland.
