Kvikne Church, Parish church in Tynset Municipality, Norway.

The octagonal wooden church stands in the village of Yset, featuring brown exterior walls and providing seating for 391 worshippers within its walls.

The original structure at this location dates to 1211, constructed by Archbishop Tore, while the current building was completed and consecrated in 1795.

The church belongs to the Nord-Østerdal prosti within the Diocese of Hamar and maintains regular services for the local Norwegian Lutheran congregation.

Located approximately 400 meters from the previous church site, the building includes a cemetery that was established in the late 17th century.

The church served as an election venue during Norway's first national elections in 1814, contributing to the formation of the Norwegian Constitution.
