Giske Church is a 12th-century parish church of the Church of Norway, built around 1130 on the island of Giske in Møre og Romsdal county, approximately 10 kilometres northwest of Ålesund. Constructed of white marble in the Norman architectural style, the church was designed by an unknown architect and follows a long church plan. The modest structure seats about 125 people and serves as the main church for the Giske parish. Today it is a protected cultural heritage site open to visitors by guided tour during the summer months.
