Byåsen Church (Norwegian: Byåsen kirke, historically Hallset Church) is a parish church in the municipality of Trondheim in Sør-Trøndelag county, Norway. It is located on the western side of the Nidelva river, in Hallset in the Byåsen neighborhood of the city of Trondheim. The church is part of the Byåsen parish in the Byåsen deanery in the Diocese of Nidaros. [1]

The hexagonal concrete church was built in 1974, and it was consecrated on 1 December 1974 by the bishop Tord Godal. The design was prepared by the architectural firm of Arnstad og Heggenhougen. It originally was called Hallset Church, but the name was changed to better reflect the area that it served.[2][3]
