Bodom Church (Norwegian: Bodom kirke, formerly called Bodom kapell) is a parish church of the Church of Norway in Steinkjer municipality in Trøndelag county, Norway. It is located in the village of Bodom in the upper Ogndalen valley, about east of the town of Steinkjer. It is one of the churches for the Ogndal parish, part of the Stiklestad prosti (deanery) in the Diocese of Nidaros. The white, wooden church was built in a long church style in 1905 using plans drawn up by the architect Søren Wiese Opsahl. The church seats about 120 people.[1] [2] [3]
The chapel was initially built to serve the upper Ogndalen valley. David Kristian Bodom left money to the parish after his death to help fund the chapel's construction. The new chapel was consecrated on 1 August 1905 by Bishop Vilhelm Andreas Wexelsen. Later, the chapel was upgraded to be a full parish church. The building was extensively renovated in 1970.[4] [5]
