Eid Church (Norwegian: Eid kyrkje) is a parish church in Rauma Municipality in Møre og Romsdal county, Norway. It is located in the village of Eidsbygda. The church is part of the Eid og Holm parish in the Indre Romsdal deanery in the Diocese of Møre. The white, wooden church was built in 1797 to replace an older church on the same site. The present church has been significantly renovated twice (1872 and 1915) and it now seats about 200 people.[1][2][3]
