Fon Church (Norwegian: Fon kirke) is a long church (Norwegian: langkirke) dating from the 12th century in the village of Fon in Vestfold county, Norway.[1][2] The church is made of stone and built in the Romanesque style. It can accommodate 130 people.[1][2] The church's bell tower was built in 1839, and it had an older bell tower before this.[3]
The church has a pulpit dating from 1603 and an altarpiece from 1633.[3] There are two church bells at Fon Church; both of them were cast at the Olsen Nauen Bell Foundry in Sem.[3] The church's oldest bell is on display at the Olsen Nauen Bell Museum.[3]
