Biography
[edit]Hille was born in Leikanger, Nordre Bergenhus, Norway. He was the son of Wollert Krohn Hille (1796–1860) and Elisabeth Marie Hess Lem (1798–1888). In 1841, he enrolled at Bergen Cathedral School, and in 1848, he began studying theology.[1]
In 1865, Hille became prison chaplain in Bergen and, in 1872, he was appointed assistant pastor in Stange Church in Hedmark county. He served as bishop in the Diocese of Hamar from 1887 to 1906. He was decorated Knight of the Order of St. Olav in 1882 and Commander, First Class in 1895.[2]
