Eidskog Church

It is one of the churches for the Eidskog parish which is part of the Solør, Vinger og Odal prosti (deanery) in the Diocese of Hamar.

The white, wooden church was built in a cruciform design in 1665 using plans drawn up by the architect Knut Mortensen.

[1][2] The earliest existing historical records of the church date back to the year 1225 in the book Hákonar saga Hákonarsonar in connection with King Hákon Hákonarson's journey to Värmland in 1225.

This somewhat skewed central tower was built by Oluf Wernersen (son of Werner Olsen).

From 1814 to 1856, there were visible bullet marks in the siding after nearby skirmishes during the Napoleonic Wars.
