Harran Church (Norwegian: Harran kirke) is a parish church in the municipality of Grong in Nord-Trøndelag county, Norway. It is located in the village of Harran. The church is part of the Harran parish in the Namdal deanery in the Diocese of Nidaros. The white, wooden church building was constructed in 1874 to replace the old Gløshaug Church which was getting to be too small and in need of repair. This church was designed by the architect Jacob Wilhelm Nordan.[1]
