In the middle of Tromsø, made entirely out of wood, is a 19th century Lutheran cathedral painted yellow.
The uncushioned pews are more like I remember enduring.
Per Vigeland’s stained glass told a more compelling story than the vague figures looming in the Arctic Cathedral. That’s Moses lifting up a snake in the wilderness.
But, like the Arctic Cathedral, the Tromsø Cathedral had an upstairs organ that could rattle the windows, maybe even make that snake shimmy.
