Our guide “Systa” told us the history of the riots between the pagans & Christians centuries ago.
When Christianity was declared the official state religion, pagan idols thrown in, thus the name Godafoss -"Waterfall of the Gods"
You had to be baptized but after that people were allowed to offer sacrifices to pagan gods as well without punishment.
End of the riots.
