The small Peter Dass Chapel is a place of peace and security, built on bare rock close to the sea. When it is raining and windy outside, you enter the chapel and immediately feel the warmth of the place. Thick walls and small windows shield the interior from its surroundings. A perfect place to take a break on the cultural hiking trail.

The Petter Dass Chapel, built in 1997, commemorates all those who lost their lives at sea. At the same time, it commemorates Petter Dass (1647-1707), a priest and Norwegian poet.
Inside are paintings by the artist Karl Erik Harr that are worth seeing. Twins from the village posed for the angels on the ceiling.
