Agdenes Church (Norwegian: Agdenes kirke) is a church in the municipality of Agdenes in Sør-Trøndelag county, Norway. The church is located along the Trondheimsleia in the north part of Agdenes, about 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) southwest of Vassbygda. The church is the main church for the municipality of Agdenes.
The church was built in 1857 and designed by architect Christian Heinrich Grosch. It was supposed to be consecrated on 24 March 1858, but due to a storm and snowy weather, it had to be postponed for 3 days until the 27th of March and several of the priests that were to be there were unable to make it.[1]
