Skorovatn Chapel (Norwegian: Skorovatn kapell) is a chapel in the municipality of Namsskogan in Nord-Trøndelag county, Norway. It is located in the village of Skorovatn. The church is part of the Namsskogan parish in the Namdal deanery in the Diocese of Nidaros. The wooden chapel was constructed in 1965 to serve the mining village of Skorovatn. The mine closed in 1984, so now there are few residents in the area. The chapel seats about 170 and is occasionally used for concerts.[1]
