History
The earliest existing historical records of the Hornindal church date back to the year 1330, but the church was not new that year. The first church in Hornindal was a wooden
consecrated on 30 November 1856 by the priest Wilhelm Frimann Koren. After the new church was in use, the old church was torn down. In 1907, the original tile roof was replaced with a slate roof. In 1956, a sacristy was built adjacent to the chancel.[4][5][6]
Prior to 1 January 2020, the church was part of the
Søre Sunnmøre prosti in the Diocese of Møre.[6]
