St. Michael's Chapel (Norwegian: St. Mikaels kapell) is a parish church of the Church of Norway in Oppdal Municipality in Trøndelag county, Norway. It is located in the Drivdalen valley, just south of the village of Driva, about 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) south of the village of Oppdal. It is a small annex chapel in the Oppdal parish which is part of the Gauldal prosti (deanery) in the Diocese of Nidaros. The small wooden chapel was built in a long church style in 2012 using plans drawn up by the architect Yngvild Wathne Sæther. The church seats about 50 people, but it is sometimes used as the backdrop for outdoor services.
