Fakse-brokke

In the fjords of Norway lays a small isolated farming village near Setesdal, Norway. According to local folklore there was once a house God who was worshiped by the local villagers whom they called Fakse. As attested in the Det Store Tidskiftet, Fakse-Brokke was a wooden idol that was hidden in a barn outside of the isolated village of Brokke. He never traveled anywhere and was propped up on an altar near the entrance.

Fakse was said to have been made out of a large pine tree log and wore a stone hat (cap). It was recorded that near the altar people would leave offerings of beer and food while praying to him. He was also attested for being worshipped for good harvests and good health among the villagers.
