Kirkjubøur (丹麥語:Kirkebø) 是一個位於法羅群島斯特萊默島東南端的村。 該村是法羅群島最重要的古蹟所在地,該處擁有的古蹟包括在約十三世紀建成的Magnus Cathedral,從十二世紀開始運作的 Saint Olav's Church以及十世紀開始使用,全歐洲現存最古老而有人居住的木屋Kirkjubøargarður。 在 1832 年,在Magnus Cathedral附近發現了一個盧恩石刻。該符文石刻, 又名Kirkjubøur石,應爲維京時期的產物。
The village is located on the south-west coast of Streymoy and has a view towards the islands Hestur and Koltur towards west and to Sandoy towards south.
The little islet just of the coast, Kirkjubøhólmur contains an eiderduck colony.
To the village belongs the islet Trøllhøvdi, just 100 m of the northern tip of Sandoy 9 km away from Kirkjubø, it was given as payment to the villagers as it was their duty to ferry people across to Sandoy in medieval times.
歷史
編輯The village was important in the Middle Ages. At that time it was the episcopal residence for the Diocese of the Faroe Islands and as such the spiritual centre of the society. In those days the village is said to have had around 50 houses. The majority of these houses were washed away by a fierce storm in the 16th century, which created the islet Kirkjubøhólmurin, which contains ruins from that time.
It is speculated that the church located the diocese in Kirkjubø, to counter the heathen Vé in Velbastaður only 5 km to the north west up the coast.[1]
There are three main attractions from this time:
- The ruins of the Magnus Cathedral from about 1300.
- The oldest still used church of the Faroes, Saint Olav's Church from 12th century.
- The oldest still inhabited wooden house of the world, Kirkjubøargarður from 11th century.
