Old Kvenvær Church

Kvenvær Church was historically located on the small island of Hakkebuøya off the western shores of the village of Kvenvær on the main island of Hitra where it was established in the mid-15th century. A new church was built there in 1763 which was in use there until 1909 when the new Kvenvær Church was built in the village of Kvenvær on the main island of Hitra in a more easily accessible location.[3][4]

The old Kvenvær Church stood unused from 1909 until 1934 when the 171-year-old building was deconstructed and moved to the village of Forsnes where it was rebuilt and renamed as the Forsnes Chapel. The builder M.O. Gunther from Hommelvik led the reconstruction. The newly rebuilt chapel was consecrated on 17 October 1935.[5][3][4]
