À propos
Selja was a natural stopping place for pilgrims during the Middle Ages. The shrine of Saint Sunniva was moved to Bergen in 1170, but Selja remained an important site of pilgrimage throughout the Middle Ages. Around 1068, Selja became one of the first three dioceses in the country, along with Oslo and Nidaros (Trondheim). The Selja diocese covered all of Western Norway. After some time, the bishop moved to Bergen, but the bishopric seat formally remained at Selja until 1170. Around 1090-1100, Selja got one of the first abbeys in the country, consecrated to Saint Albanus.
