Stongfjorden Chapel (Norwegian: Stongfjorden bedehuskapell) is a chapel in Gaular Municipality in Sogn og Fjordane county, Norway. It is located in the village of Stongfjorden. The chapel is part of the Askvoll parish in the Sunnfjord deanery in the Diocese of Bjørgvin. The white, wooden chapel seats about 300, and it was built in 1908 as a bedehus. Soon after, it was consecrated for regular church use on 6 December 1914 by the Dean Jonas Rein Landmark. The architect Martinus Haugen made the original designs for the chapel. There have been some additions and renovations since that time.
