==History== The Berg Church Association was founded in 1937 with the aim of building a church building at Berg in Trondheim. The initiator and first leader was the rector Tycho Castberg, who according to the congregation also drew a draft for the church building. After the money was raised, the architecture firm of Lien &amp; Risan was hired. The church was [[consecrate]]d on 19 March 1972 by the Bishop [[Tord Godal]]. The church was originally named {{lang|no|Berg arbeidskirke}}. The church was expanded in 1981–1982 and it also got a new bell tower in 1991. In 1995, Berg became its own parish at that time, the church was renamed simply {{lang|no|Berg kirke}}.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Berg arbeidskirke |url=http://www.strindahistorielag.no/wiki/index.php?title=Berg_arbeidskirke |publisher=Strinda historielag |language=Norwegian |accessdate=2011-04-15}}</ref><ref name="NK">{{Cite web |title=Berg kirke |url=https://www.norske-kirker.net/home/trondelag/berg-kirke/ |access-date=2021-06-17 |website=Norges-Kirker.no |language=Norwegian}}</ref>
