History

The first church in Sandvika was built in 1636. In 1790, the old church was torn down and replaced with a new building. In 1873, the old church was torn down and replaced with a new timber-framed building. The church was designed as a long church in a Neo-gothic style with a nave and choir. It also has a sacristy on the north side of the choir and an entry porch on the west end of the nave.{{Cite web |title=Nordli kirke |url=https://www.norske-kirker.net/home/trondelag/nordli-kirke/ |access-date=2021-04-18 |website=Norges-Kirker.no |language=Norwegian}}
