Fiplingdal Church (Norwegian: Fiplingdal kirke) is a parish church in the municipality of Grane in Nordland county, Norway. It is located on the north side of the tiny village of Leiren on the north end of the lake Nedre Fiplingvatnet. The church is part of the Grane parish in the Indre Helgeland deanery in the Diocese of Sør-Hålogaland. The small wooden building was built in 1946 to serve the eastern part of the municipality. It was consecrated as a "chapel" in 1964. The wooden church building seats about 70 people, and it holds about 10 worship services there each year in additions to baptisms, confirmations, weddings, and funerals.[1]
