History

Historically, the old Sel Church was located at Nord-Sel on the Romundgård farm, just about 80 metres (260 ft) south of the present site of the Nord-Sel Church. In 1742, the old Sel Church was torn down and a new Sel Church was built about 9 kilometres (5.6 mi) to the southeast, further down the valley. Nord-Sel was then without a church for nearly 200 years. In the early 1930s, plans were made to build a new church in Nord-Sel, on a site about 80 metres (260 ft) to the north of the old historic church site, on the opposite side of the road. The new long church building was designed by Knut Villa. The building was constructed in 1931-1932 and it was consecrated in 1932. The nave is rectangular and has a small tower over the church porch in the southeast, the chancel is on the northwest end of the building, and there is a sacristy on the southwest side of the chancel.
