Vår Frue Church in Porsgrunn, Norway, is a Roman Catholic parish church built in 1899 by architect Haldor Børve. Located at the intersection of Sverresgate and Aallsgate in the town center just south of Porsgrunn River, the building exemplifies Dragestil architecture—a distinctive Scandinavian interpretation of Art Nouveau characterized by dramatic, dragon-like decorative elements.
