Norwegian Church, Swansea, Grade II listed church building in St Thomas, Swansea, United Kingdom.
The Norwegian Church features a Gothic style eastern section and combines it with a Seaman's Mission in the western part of the structure.
Originally constructed in Newport around 1900, this religious building moved to Swansea in 1910 to serve Norwegian sailors visiting British ports.
The church provided religious services in both English and Norwegian languages, maintaining connections between British and Scandinavian maritime communities until 1998.
Located opposite Sainsbury's supermarket on the River Tawe, the church building now operates as a nursery after its relocation near Prince of Wales dock.
The structure underwent careful dismantling and reassembly in 2004 during the area's redevelopment, preserving its architectural elements for future generations.
