Old Gaupne Church (Norwegian: Gaupne gamle kyrkje) is a historic parish church in Luster Municipality in Sogn og Fjordane county, Norway. It is located in the village of Gaupne. The church is part of the Luster parish in the Indre Sogn deanery in the Diocese of Bjørgvin. The brown, wooden church, which has 130 seats, was built from 1647 to 1652 to replace an older stave church that was torn down. This church was used from that time until 1907 when the new Gaupne Church was completed. This church was then given to the Society for the Preservation of Ancient Norwegian Monuments in 1909. The society cares for the site and the parish uses the church for special occasions.
