St. Olav's Church (Bengali: সেন্ট ওলাভ'স চার্চ, romanized: Sēnṭa ōlābha'sa cārca) is a protestant church in Serampore, West Bengal, India.[1] Also known as St Olave's Danish Church, it was built in the early 19th century, when the area was part of Fredriksnagore – then a small (50 km²) colony of Denmark-Norway. The building is now jointly controlled by the Church of North India (CNI) and Serampore College Council.
