Vår Frelsers kirke (Our Saviour's church) is a church from 1901 in Haugesund, Rogaland.
The church has stained glass windows made of Linnich Art Institution in Germany. They have two themes, the Holy Trinity and the four evangelists.
To date, the church has benefited from three main organs: a Noreg (1901-1955), a Steinmeyer (1955-2003), and a Verschueren (2003-).
The Noreg organ consisted of 30 stops, and was rebuilt in 1911 by Andreas Landrog (who maintained the organ until it was replaced in 1955). Ten of its stops were used in the Steinmeyer organ, which was later relocated to Poland. Eleven others were used in an organ built for Vår Frelsers gravland (delivered 1955; replaced 1985).
