Vestvik Church (Norwegian: Vestvik kirke) is a parish church in the municipality of Inderøy in Nord-Trøndelag county, Norway. It is located in the village of Framverran. The church is part of the Mosvik parish in the Nord-Innherad deanery in the Diocese of Nidaros.

The wooden church building was constructed in 1905 to replace an old church built in 1823. Prior to this, there were another wooden church of unknown age, mentioned in archbishops registers in 1533.[1]

The present church was built by the architect Jon Rostad using some of the materials from the 1823 church. It seats about 275 people.[2]
