Torfkirche von Groef – Island  Die Grafarkirkja (Torfkirche von Gröf, Bilder rechts) im Norden Islands ist die älteste des Landes. Sie wurde im späten 17. Jh. erbaut, möglicherweise auf den Ruinen einer älteren Kirche. Lange Zeit ungenutzt, diente sie als Lager für Arbeitsgeräte. Ihre Wände sind anderthalb Meter dick und aus Torf.
Groef Peat Church – Iceland  The Grafarkirkja (Turf Church of Gröf, photos on the right) in northern Iceland is the oldest church in the country. It was built in the late 17th century, possibly on the ruins of an older church. For a long time, it remained unused and was used as storage for tools. Its walls are 1.5 meters (about 4.9 feet) thick and made of turf.
Église de tourbe Groef – Islande  La Grafarkirkja (Église en tourbe de Gröf, Photos à droite) dans le nord de l’Islande est la plus ancienne du pays. Construite à la fin du XVIIe siècle, elle repose peut-être sur les ruines d’une église plus ancienne. Longtemps inutilisée, elle servait de stockage pour des outils. Ses murs sont épais de 1,5 mètre et faits de tourbe.

Kirche Our Lady of the Way – Haines Junction  1954 wollte der katholische Pater E. Morriset am Alaska Highway in Haines Junction eine Kirche erbauen. Er entdeckte eine verlassene Quonsetbaracke, eine längliche, aus Wellblech gefertigte Behausung, die die US-Armee beim Bau des Alaska Highway zurückgelassen hatte. Diese verwandelte er in die ungewöhnliche Kirche Our Lady of the Way (Photo rechts).
Our Lady of the Way Church   In 1954, the Catholic priest E. Morriset wanted to build a church on the Alaska Highway in Haines Junction. He found an abandoned Quonset hut, an elongated, half-round corrugated iron hut, left behind by the US Army after the construction of the Alaska Highway. He transformed it into the unusual Church of Our Lady of the Way (photo on the right).
Église Notre-Dame du Chemin   En 1954, le prêtre catholique E. Morriset souhaitait construire une église sur l’Alaska Highway à Haines Junction. Il a trouvé une baraque Quonset abandonnée, une cabane allongée et semi-circulaire en tôle ondulée, laissée par l’armée américaine après la construction de l’Alaska Highway. Il l’a transformée en l’église inhabituelle Notre-Dame du Chemin (photo à droite).

St. Christopher’s Kirche – Haines Junction  In den 1980er Jahren bauten Freiwillige und Sträflinge unter Leitung des Schreiners Henry Henkel nach dessen Plan die anglikanische Blockhauskirche St. Christopher’s (Bilder rechts) in Haines Junction am Alaska Highway. Heute dient sie als Kunstgalerie, in der Künstler ihre Werke ausstellen und verkaufen.
St. Christopher’s Church In the 1980s, volunteers and prisoners, under the guidance of carpenter Henry Henkel, built the Anglican log church St. Christopher’s (pictured right) in Haines Junction along the Alaska Highway, based on his design. Today, it serves as an art gallery where artists display and sell their works.

Aujourd’hui, elle sert de galerie d’art où les artistes exposent et vendent leurs œuvres.
