Tovdal Church (Norwegian: Tovdal kyrkje) is a parish church in Åmli municipality in Aust-Agder county, Norway. It is located in the village of Hillestad. It is the church for the Åmli parish which is part of the Aust-Nedenes prosti (deanery) in the Diocese of Agder og Telemark. The white, wooden church was built in 1820 by an unknown architect to replace an older church on the same site. The church seats about 105 people. It was consecrated on 4 March 1827. The church underwent some restoration work during the 1930s.[1][2][3][4]
