Hen Church (Norwegian: Hen kyrkje) is a parish church of the Church of Norway in Rauma Municipality in Møre og Romsdal county, Norway. It is located in the village of Isfjorden, about 6 kilometres (3.7 mi) east of the town of Åndalsnes. It is the church for the Hen parish which is part of the Indre Romsdal prosti (deanery) in the Diocese of Møre. The white, stone church was built in a long church design in 1831 using plans drawn up by an unknown architect. The church seats about 200 people.[1][2]
