Sandstad Church ({{langx|no|Sandstad kirke}}) is a parish church of the Church of Norway in Hitra Municipality in Trøndelag county, Norway. It is located in the village of Sandstad on the southeastern coast of the island of Hitra. It is one of the churches for the Kvenvær og Sandstad parish which is part of the Orkdal prosti (deanery) in the Diocese of Nidaros. The white, wooden church was built in a long church design in 1888 using plans drawn up by the architect Henrik Nissen. It was built using the same plans that were used by the nearby Hallaren Church about seven years earlier. The church seats about 350 people.{{Cite web |title=Sandstad kirke |url=https://kirkesok.no/kirke/161700301 |publisher=Kirkesøk: Kirkebyggdatabasen |language=no |accessdate=2018-02-18}}{{Cite web |title=Oversikt over Nåværende Kirker |url=http://www.kirkekonsulenten.no/kirker.htm |publisher=KirkeKonsulenten.no |language=Norwegian |accessdate=2018-02-18}}
