Ramsvik Church

Ramsvik Church (Norwegian: Ramsvik kirke) is a parish church 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. It was originally built as a chapel, but has been expanded and is now a church. The church seats about 200 people.[1][2] The church does not have a cemetery adjacent to it, but rather they use a cemetery in nearby Husbysjøen.[3]
