Sandar Church

Sandar Church features a cruciform design with white wooden construction and can accommodate 700 people inside its spacious interior walls.

The church, completed in 1792, replaced a medieval stone church from the 12th century that was dedicated to Saint Olav and Virgin Mary.

The church maintains its position as a central religious institution in Sandefjord, conducting regular Lutheran services and hosting community gatherings.

Visitors can contact the church through email at post@sandefjord.kirken.no or telephone +47 33 45 44 50 for information about services and visits.

Archaeological excavations in 1901-1902 revealed coins from the 1100s and building blocks from the medieval church beneath the current churchyard.
