History

For centuries, Nordsinni Church was located at Haugner (historically spelled Hogne). In 1898, the old Nordsinni Church was taken down and moved further down the valley to a more accessible location. Around 1900, a bell tower was built at the site of the old church, alongside the existing cemetery there. In 1938, a small burial chapel was built on the site as well. The building was designed by Harald Myhre as a long church that measured {{convert|183|m2}} and it had room for 100 people. In 1950, the chapel was consecrated for church use by the Bishop Kristian Schjelderup.{{Cite web |title=Haugner - Hogne - Nordsinni gamle kirkested |url=http://www.kulturminnesok.no/kulturminnesok/kulturminne/?LOK_ID=84503 |access-date=2022-01-22 |publisher=Norwegian Directorate for Cultural Heritage |language=Norwegian}}{{Cite web |title=Haugner kirke |url=https://www.norske-kirker.net/home/oppland/haugner-kirke/ |access-date=2022-01-22 |website=Norges-Kirker.no |language=Norwegian}}{{Cite web |title=Haugner kirke |url=https://kirken.no/nb-NO/fellesrad/nordre-land/kirkene%20v%C3%A5re/haugner%20kirke/ |access-date=2022-01-22 |website=Nordre Land kirkelige fellesråd |language=Norwegian}}
