The earliest existing historical records of the church date back to the year 1533, but the church was not new that year. The church was likely constructed around the year 1160. It is one of the few remaining stone churches from the [[Middle Ages]] in Norway. Hustad Church was built of quarry stone. The masonry is almost completely preserved. The church has an entry porch on the west end with a tower above it. There is a rectangular [[nave]] and a narrower, rectangular [[chancel]]. [[Dendrochronological]] datings from the church show that the trees used to build the roof structure of the nave was cut down in the years 1162–1163. Based on masonry technique and stylistic features at the portals, it can be concluded that the church was started in the first half of the 12th century and completed around 1163. The two [[Portal (architecture)|portals]] to the north and south are arched in Romanesque style. After it was completed, the tower on the west end was constructed, completing that work around the year 1180. Some unique aspects of this small church include the [[pew]]s which are original, and the cemetery which is surrounded by a log joined fence, the only such preserved fence in the traditional region of [[Trøndelag]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Hustad kirke |url=http://www.inderoy-prestegjeld.no/sandvollan_sokn/hustad_kirke.htm |url-status=dead |publisher=Inderøy prestegjeld |language=Norwegian |accessdate=2011-06-15 |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20120324224714/http://www.inderoy-prestegjeld.no/sandvollan_sokn/hustad_kirke.htm |archivedate=2012-03-24}}</ref><ref name="snl">{{Cite web |last=Nina Aldin Thune |title=Hustad kirke |url=http://www.snl.no/Hustad_kirke |publisher=Store norske leksikon |language=Norwegian |accessdate=2011-06-15}}</ref><ref name="kms">{{Cite web |title=Hustad kirkested |url=http://www.kulturminnesok.no/kulturminnesok/kulturminne/?LOK_ID=84672 |access-date=2021-05-22 |publisher=[[Norwegian Directorate for Cultural Heritage]] |language=Norwegian}}</ref><ref name="NK">{{Cite web |title=Hustad kirke |url=https://www.norske-kirker.net/home/trondelag/hustad-kirke/ |access-date=2021-05-22 |website=Norges-Kirker.no |language=Norwegian}}</ref>
Hustad Church in Inderøy is a medieval era church built between 1130 and 1160. It is one of the few remaining stone churches from the [[Middle Ages]] in Norway. Hustad Church was built of quarry stone. The masonry is almost completely preserved. The church is no longer used as a regular parish church, but it is still used for special occasions. Since 1887, the church has been owned by the [[Society for the Preservation of Ancient Norwegian Monuments]] ({{lang|no|Fortidsminneforeningen}}). The church has remained unchanged since that time.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.fortidsminneforeningen.no/vare-eiendommer/hustad-kirke|title=Hustad kirke|publisher=Fortidsminneforeningen|accessdate=2017-11-01}}</ref>

In 1650, the tower was replaced and rebuilt on top of the stone base that is the main entrance to the building. Also that year, a wooden [[sacristy]] was constructed on the north side of the building. Much of the interior [[Baroque architecture|baroque]]-style furniture was added to the building during the renovations of 1650. The current [[altarpiece]] is from 1702 and it has the image of the [[Crucifixion of Jesus]]. On the [[pulpit]] is the painted carvings of the [[Evangelism|Evangelists]].<ref name="kms" /><ref name="NK" />


The church, like most other Norwegian churches, was sold at the [[Norwegian church auction]] in the 1720s so that the King could pay debts from the [[Great Northern War]]. The last private owner sold the church to the people of the parish in 1838. The church was renovated and the interior painted in bright colors soon after that. An increase in the population and the Church Act of 1851, which required that church buildings have room to hold 30% of the people living in the parish, meant that the church was too small. In 1885, permission was granted to build a new church nearby ([[Heggstad Church]]). After the new church was put into use, the old church was closed and sold to the [[Society for the Preservation of Ancient Norwegian Monuments]] ({{lang|no|Fortidsminneforeningen}}) who maintains the building and runs it as a museum.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Hustad kirke |url=https://www.fortidsminneforeningen.no/vare-eiendommer/hustad-kirke |publisher=Fortidsminneforeningen |accessdate=2017-11-01}}</ref><ref name="kms" /><ref name="NK" />

History

[edit]

The earliest existing historical records of the church date back to the year 1533, but the church was not new that year. The church was likely constructed around the year 1160. It is one of the few remaining stone churches from the Middle Ages in Norway. Hustad Church was built of quarry stone. The masonry is almost completely preserved. The church has an entry porch on the west end with a tower above it. There is a rectangular nave and a narrower, rectangular chancel. Dendrochronological datings from the church show that the trees used to build the roof structure of the nave was cut down in the years 1162–1163. Based on masonry technique and stylistic features at the portals, it can be concluded that the church was started in the first half of the 12th century and completed around 1163. The two portals to the north and south are arched in Romanesque style. After it was completed, the tower on the west end was constructed, completing that work around the year 1180. Some unique aspects of this small church include the pews which are original, and the cemetery which is surrounded by a log joined fence, the only such preserved fence in the traditional region of Trøndelag.[4][5][6][7]

In 1650, the tower was replaced and rebuilt on top of the stone base that is the main entrance to the building. Also that year, a wooden sacristy was constructed on the north side of the building. Much of the interior baroque-style furniture was added to the building during the renovations of 1650. The current altarpiece is from 1702 and it has the image of the Crucifixion of Jesus. On the pulpit is the painted carvings of the Evangelists.[6][7]

The church, like most other Norwegian churches, was sold at the Norwegian church auction in the 1720s so that the King could pay debts from the Great Northern War. The last private owner sold the church to the people of the parish in 1838. The church was renovated and the interior painted in bright colors soon after that. An increase in the population and the Church Act of 1851, which required that church buildings have room to hold 30% of the people living in the parish, meant that the church was too small. In 1885, permission was granted to build a new church nearby (Heggstad Church). After the new church was put into use, the old church was closed and sold to the Society for the Preservation of Ancient Norwegian Monuments (Fortidsminneforeningen) who maintains the building and runs it as a museum.[8][6][7]
