Description
"Antsirabe. Kirkeinnvielse 1929" ("Antsirabe. Church inauguration 1929"). The church at this point has no churchtower. According to the USCDL patron Mr. Nils Kristian Høimyr, "This is the third church [built] on the same place. A tower was built later, but collapsed after weeks of heavy rain in February/March 1938. In 1960, two new towers were built [...] by Sigvald Folleraas".
