Bodin Church

The stone church features a rectangular nave with a narrower chancel and includes a south transept added to expand the building capacity.

The church, consecrated in 1201, underwent a complete reconstruction in 1894 while maintaining its original medieval architectural principles and design elements.

The interior contains wooden sculptures from the 15th century, a stone altar from the 14th century, and a pulpit with paintings by German artist Gottfried Ezekiel.

Located in southeastern Bodø, the church accommodates 300 people and maintains regular services while welcoming visitors interested in Norwegian religious architecture.

During the formation of the Norwegian Constitution in 1814, the church served as one of the national election polling stations for local representatives.
