Loppa Church (Norwegian: Loppa kirke) is a parish church of the Church of Norway in Loppa Municipality in Finnmark county, Norway. It is located in the village of Loppa on the sparsely populated island of Loppa. It is one of the churches in the Loppa parish which is part of the Alta prosti (deanery) in the Diocese of Nord-Hålogaland. The white, wooden church was built in a long church style in 1953 using plans drawn up by the architects Hans Magnus and Johan Lindstrøm. The church seats about 150 people, but it is rarely used since the island has few residents.[1][2]
