Rovde Church
Rovde Church (Norwegian: Rovde kyrkje) is a parish church in Vanylven Municipality in Møre og Romsdal county, Norway. It is located in the village of Rovdane, along the Rovdefjorden. The church is part of the Rovde parish in the Søre Sunnmøre deanery in the Diocese of Møre. The white, wooden church was built in 1872 by the architect Lars Tornæs. The church seats about 350 people. This is the third known church to stand on this site. The first church was a stave church that was torn down in 1832. It was replaced by a wooden church that only lasted 40 years before it was taken down, sold, and the materials were reused in a boathouse on nearby Sandsøya. That church was then replaced by the present building.
