History
The parish of Herøy was long based at the old Herøy Church on the small island of Herøya. In 1916, however, the parish was divided, and the main church site was moved from the small island to the northwest into the large village of Fosnavåg. At the same time, a new church site was established in Stokksund on Gurskøya to serve the people of that island. This is where the new Indre Herøy Church was built. It was consecrated in 1916. The church was designed by builder Ole Havnæs from the town of Ålesund.
