==History== Oppegård chapel is located deep in the forest in southern Løten municipality, a little southeast of the large lake [[Rokosjøen]]. It is a single-storey wooden house with a [[Choir (architecture)|choir]]. The building was [[consecrated]] for church use in 1886. The chapel was also used as a schoolhouse from 1886 until 1919. A divider was used to close off the choir when the rest of the building was used for school or other non-church purposes. The building was restored in 1986.<ref name="kms">{{Cite web |title=Oppegård kirkested / Oppegård kapell |url=http://www.kulturminnesok.no/kulturminnesok/kulturminne/?LOK_ID=85225 |access-date=2022-01-05 |publisher=[[Norwegian Directorate for Cultural Heritage]] |language=Norwegian}}</ref><ref name="NK">{{Cite web |title=Oppegård kapell |url=https://www.norske-kirker.net/home/hedmark/oppegaard-kapell/ |access-date=2022-01-05 |website=Norges-Kirker.no |language=Norwegian}}</ref>
