Åkra Church

Åkra Church (Norwegian: Åkra kirke) is a parish church in Karmøy municipality in Rogaland county, Norway. It is located in the town of Åkrehamn on the western coast of the island of Karmøy. The church is part of the Åkra parish in the Karmøy deanery in the Diocese of Stavanger. The modern-looking stone/brick church was built in 1985 to replace the aging Old Åkra Church which is located nearby. The church was consecrated by the Bishop Sigurd Lunde. The 1,600 square metres (17,000 sq ft) church seats about 430 people in the main sanctuary, but it can be expanded to more if needed.
