Hornindal Church (Norwegian: Hornindal kyrkje) is a parish church in Hornindal Municipality in Sogn og Fjordane county, Norway. It is located in the village of Grodås, at the eastern end of the lake Hornindalsvatnet. The church is part of the Hornindal parish in the Nordfjord deanery in the Diocese of Bjørgvin. The white, wooden church was built in 1856 by the architect Ludolph Rolfsen using plans created by Hans Linstow. The church was consecrated on 30 November 1856 by the priest Wilhelm Frimann Koren. The church seats about 400 people.[1][2]
History
The first known church in Hornindal was called Hornynarkyrkja and it was located in Ytrehorn, just west of the present location. This church was demolished in 1600 and was replaced by a long, low, wooden church at the nearby Kirkhorn farm. That church was replaced by the present church in 1856.[3]
