Vatnås church, Lutheran church in Sigdal, Norway.
The wooden structure of Vatnås church features a rectangular nave with a straight chancel positioned at the eastern end of the building.
Built in 1690, the church underwent major modifications in the 1730s when the old chancel was removed and replaced with a new cruciform design.
The interior walls display original paint from 1679, which remained hidden under layers until restoration work revealed them again in 1948.
The church maintains regular services and contains preserved furniture from the 17th century, including pieces crafted by Christopher Ridder.
According to local records, the church location was selected when King Olav discovered water emerging from a rock during a hunting expedition.
