Klæbu kirkegård
Prestegårdsvegen 43, 7540 KlæbuKlæbu Church is a distinctive church from 1790. It is an octagonal church with a self-supporting vaulted ceiling. This means that the church has no interior columns at all. For its time, this was a masterpiece of construction that was not carried out in many other churches. There are 330 seats in the church when the gallery is also in use.
