Lomen Stave Church is a stave church located in the small village of Lomen in Vestre Slidre municipality in Oppland county, Norway. Lomen is situated in the traditional region of Valdres.
Lomen stave church was built in the second half of the 12th century. Through dendrochronological dating the church has been dated to 1192, but the first reference in written sources is not until 1325 and 1334, at that time as "Hvams kirke". The church was rebuilt and enlarged in 1749. The church is supported by 4 columns, and has three lavishly carved portals, chancel-arches and column capitals. During the last refurbishment of the church, an archaeological excavation was carried out and 71 artifacts were found, including pieces of jewelry and coins. Some of the coins were as old as the 12th century. Lomen stave church houses the pedestal of a baptismal font dating from the 1200s.
