Eidsberg Church, Gothic Revival church in Indre Østfold Municipality, Norway

The stone church stands next to the Glomma river, featuring a cruciform design with a sculptural representation of St. Olav above its entrance.

Originally constructed in 1201 in Romanesque style, the church underwent extensive reconstruction between 1880 and 1881 under architect Paul Due's direction.

The interior contains a medieval baptismal font from the 1200s and a baroque altarpiece created by Christopher Ridder in 1651 depicting the Crucifixion.

The religious building serves the Østre Borgesyssel deanery within the Diocese of Borg and remains accessible via County Road 124.

Near the church at Lekum farm, Olaf Rye performed the first documented ski jump in history on November 22, 1808.
