Bryn Church is a long church located in Rykkinn in the municipality of Bærum in Akershus county, Norway. It was built in 1861 based on plans by the architect Peter Høier Holtermann. The church is made of brick and can accommodate 400 people. There is a cemetery next to the church. The church functions as a road church and is the parish church for Bryn.An urn with the remains of the film director Rasmus Breistein is kept at the church.HistoryThe church was built in 1861 and was inaugurated in a major ceremony on June 28, 1861. Gunder Kristensen Krydsby from Lommedalen transported the two church bells from Oslo by horse and wagon.The newspaper Ringeriges Ugeblad (now Ringerikes Blad) wrote that: "Already early in the morning, crowds were seen along all the roads heading to the church. About 800 admission tickets were given out. The church opened at 9:30, and those that had tickets were able to enter and take their place. At 10:00 the procession set out from the Bryn farm. It consisted of ten priests from the deanery. The town's new and very attractive church was consecrated."Some of the church's furnishings were newly purchased, some were received as gifts, and some were transferred from the much older Tanum Church. The chancel decoration was created by Emanuel Vigeland, the brother of the better known Gustav Vigeland.
