Nes Church Ruins is a historic site located in Nes, Akershus, Norway. The ruins are one of Norway's best-preserved church ruins and date back to the 12th century. The church was built in Romanesque style and was extended into a cruciform church in 1697. After a fire in 1854, the walls were preserved as ruins. The site offers magnificent views of the confluence of the Glomma and Vorma rivers and is a great place to visit for those interested in history and nature. The ruins host concerts and weddings, and there is a park with benches and tables for a pleasant rest. The area around the church is also worth exploring, with varied vegetation, beautiful cultural landscape, and reminders of major landslides
