Eidsvoll Church (Norwegian: Eidsvoll Kirke) is a cruciform church from c. 1190 in Eidsvoll, Akershus in Norway. The Romanesque building is of stone and probably one of the first cruciform stone churches to be built in Norway. Close to Eidsvoll Church there is an ancient sunken lane that was used as a path far into the last century. Eidsvoll Church is listed and protected by law by the Norwegian Directorate for Cultural Heritage. [2] [3]
