Edøy Old Church is still in use but was protected as a historic site in 2002. It was most likely built as a private chapel for the king’s representative on Edøy.
In the early 1600s, the church was expanded. Today, it serves as a stunning and historically accurate backdrop for the play Fru Guri of Edøy, performed every summer on the amphitheater stage at the Gurisenteret.
