Heidal Church (Norwegian: Heidal kyrkje) is a parish church of the Church of Norway in Sel Municipality in Innlandet county, Norway. It is located in the village of Bjølstad, in Heidal, a side valley of the main Gudbrandsdalen valley. It is the church for the Heidal parish which is part of the Nord-Gudbrandsdal prosti (deanery) in the Diocese of Hamar. The brown, wooden church was built in a cruciform design in 1941 using plans drawn up by the architect Bredo Berntsen. The church seats about 292 people.[1][2]

The church, cemetery, and Bjølstad Chapel are encircled by a sturdy double-layered timber-framed wall that is approximately 1 metre (3 ft 3 in) tall. The wall has a slate roof on top.
