Ramsvik Church

Ramsvik Church (Norwegian: Ramsvik kirke) is a parish church of the Church of Norway in Indre Fosen municipality in Trøndelag county, Norway. It is located at Ramsvik, on the south side of the village of Råkvåg, on the shore of the Stjørnfjorden. It is one of the churches for the Sør-Stjørna parish which is part of the Fosen prosti (deanery) in the Diocese of Nidaros. The white, wooden church was built in a long church style in 1908 by an unknown architect. The church seats about 200 people.

History

The building was originally constructed as a chapel in 1908 and it was consecrated in August 1909. Over the years it has been expanded several times and now it has been upgraded to a full parish church. The church does not have a cemetery adjacent to it, but rather they use a cemetery in the nearby village of Husbysjøen, about 4 kilometres (2.5 mi) away.
