One of my friend suggested this place and told me the story and I was so happy to see this church in person. It's located on the top of the mountain, Isolated and with the best view.

What's the story?

Years ago there were Three Kings, All longing for power and position. One of them (King Holger Alvunger) poisoned the other two Kings after calling them for dinner at his place. But things didn't go as he planned. The supporters of the Dead became Furious and gathered to kill The Wicked man Holger.

The king was left with no choice and he too accepted the fate by taking poison and finished himself. Locals buried all the three-body on the church land.
