The reopening date for one of Cardiff's most well-loved buildings has been announced. The historic Norwegian Church remained shut throughout the pandemic but following a fundraising appeal, is set to re-open under new management.
The building, which is a café, arts centre and music venue, has been taken over by the Norwegian Church Cardiff Bay charity, with a fundraising appeal being launched last year. The charity said it planned to focus on the heritage of the church through developing displays featuring its history, starting with its building in 1868.
The church has a rich history connected to Cardiff Bay and was attended by Norwegian sailors, particularly during the Second World War, when they could not return to Norway. World famous children's author Roald Dahl was baptised there.
