Totenviken Church
Totenviken Church () is a parish church of the Church of Norway in Østre Toten Municipality in Innlandet county, Norway. It is located in the village of Totenvika. It is one of the churches for the Balke parish which is part of the Toten prosti (deanery) in the Diocese of Hamar. The white, plastered brick church was built in a long church design in 1896 using plans drawn up by the architect Peter Kjølseth. The church seats about 400 people. History
In 1864, the graveyard at the nearby Balke Church had gotten too small, so an auxiliary cemetery was built in Totenvika. The new cemetery was consecrated on 30 September 1864. In the 1880s, there was growing interest in having an annex chapel built on the site of the cemetery. Fundraising campaigns started, and architectural drawings were obtained from Peter Kjølseth. The new building was built with brick and covered with plaster. Originally, it was called Viken Chapel and it was consecrated on 25 November 1896. In 1922–1923, the church was renovated. The old tower was taken down and a new tower with a different design was built. Also, a new choir and sacristies were built on the east end of the building. The building was re-consecrated on 14 September 1923. Media gallery
