Local nameGrytten kirke
LocationVestlandet, Norway

Grytten Church is a parish church of the Church of Norway in Rauma Municipality in Møre og Romsdal county, Norway. It is located near the mouth of the Rauma River in the village of Veblungsnes. It is the church for the Grytten parish which is part of the Indre Romsdal prosti in the Diocese of Møre. The red, wooden church was built in an octagonal design in 1829 using plans drawn up by the architect S.H. Aspaas, possibly using the Sør-Fron Church as a model. The church seats about 250 people.

There are four large columns which support the tower. Inside the church, there is a tall, 2-metre wide wooden crucifix, possibly from the 13th century. The church has a so-called pulpit altar, which is a pulpit centrally located directly above the altar. The two church bells are from the previous churches.
