Borge Church, a distinct landmark in rural landscape, at Borg, on Vestvågøya Island, Lofoten archipelago, Nordland county, Norway.


The modern church at Borg, Vestvågøy, towers up from a hilltop to the west of the Viking Homestead, Lofotr. The church ( designed by the local architect Knut Gjernes ), is humorously referred to by the locals as the ski jump.
