==History==
The church was originally constructed in 1734 at Solstad (near [Holm](/source/Holm%2C_Norway)) in [Bindal Municipality](/source/Bindal_Municipality) and it was known then as [Solstad Church](/source/Solstad_Church). The building was disassembled and moved here in 1888 when it was renamed as Tosen Chapel.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Tosen kapell |url=http://www.velfjord.no/kirken/ |publisher=Velfjord.no |language=Norwegian |accessdate=2011-11-09}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Tosen kapell |url=http://www.velfjord.no/kirken/tosen.html |publisher=Velfjord og Tosen menighet |language=Norwegian |accessdate=2018-09-27}}</ref>
