Church wall

Road wall with repurposed stone from the former Namsos church, 1897-1903 / 1645-1955. The dry-stone wall at Niels Bjørums gate 14-28 is erected with stone from the former Namsos church. A long church in grey stone, designed by Karl Norum, was consecrated on 18 December 1903. On 20 April 1940, Namsos was bombed, and everything flammable in the church burned, so that only the walls remained. The demolition of these was decided, and a new church was built after the war.
