Description
English: An embroidered tapestry from the 12th or 13th century. Owned by NTNU Museum of Natural History and Archaeology. A replica is kept in Høylandet kirke (=church), Nord-Trøndelag, Norway. The tapestry is now approx. 2 m long, but has been longer.
Norsk bokmål: Ifølge Riksantikvaren stammer Høylandsteppet fra Høylandet kirke og er datert til slutten av 1100-tallet (Engelstad 1952:66ff). Dette er «ei revle eller et billedteppe som er vevd og deretter brodert med scener fra Matteusevangeliet». En eldre stavkirke på Romstad (Høylandet kirkested) er nevnt i 1543. I 1672 ble det bygd ny kirke. Disse lå snaue hundre meter nordvest for dagens trekirke fra 1860.
Date 12th century or 13th century
