Geiranger Church is a small octagonal wooden church built in 1842. The church is said to have been built on the remains of a 15th-century church. The church was decorated by woodcarver Einar Flydal after Vigeland introduced the artist. The work was carried out during the period 1938-1945. The woodcarvings were painted by Lars Tynes, Karl Gjere and Nils Bjørdal, all from Geiranger.
