Furuset Church is a church that was consecrated in 1980. The church is located in the neighborhood of Furuset in Oslo, Norway. [3] In the same area was a church in the Middle Ages, from which keys of iron were found, are preserved and placed in the present church. [4]
The church is built in brick and has 600 seats spread over several rooms that can be joined or separated by sliding doors. Downstairs there is a meeting room. The altarpiece in the church room, made by Gunnar Torvund, is in wood with a Christ motif in bronze. It has carved biblical and religious motifs. The church organ, which has 18 voices, was built by organ builder Eystein Gangfløt in 1982.
The church has a steep roof and a separate bell tower of bricks and panels, where there are two church bells. [1] [2] [5]
