History

During the 1920s, the people on the north side of the Innvik Church parish began asking for their own church on their side of the fjord. Strife and negotiations of this idea carried on for decades. After World War II, political changes ensued in the local municipalities. In 1965, the old Hornindal municipality was divided and a large portion of it was added to Stryn municipality. After some negotiations, approval for the new Nordsida Chapel was given. The new chapel would be an annex chapel under Hornindal Church. The architect Alf Apalseth from Ørsta made the architectural drawings for the new church building and Kjell Sigmar Slinning designed the interior of the church. The church was completed in 1973. The building was consecrated on 9 December 1973 by the Bishop Per Juvkam. In 1977, the part of Stryn that used to be Hornindal municipality was separated from Stryn municipality again. On 1 July 1981, Nordsida Chapel was renamed as a church and it became a full parish church. [4] [5] [6]
