Nordstrand Church, Modern church building in Nordstrand, Norway

The Nordstrand Church features red brick construction in neo-Gothic style, with a tower added in 1935 by architect Georg Greve.

Originally named Østre Aker Chapel in 1866, the structure became Nordstrand Church in 1906 following the establishment of its congregation.

The interior contains three stained glass windows crafted by artist Frøydis Haavardsholm, forming the central altarpiece of the church.

The 2015 expansion increased the seating capacity from 300 to 480 people, with the building extending 26 meters toward the east.

Two organs complement the space: a main pneumatic instrument with 24 voices on the balcony and a smaller one in the choir area.

Location: Oslo Municipality

Inception: 2015
