Zoar Norwegian Lutheran Church

The Zoar Norwegian Lutheran Church is a historic church in rural northeastern Day County, South Dakota. It is a modest wood-frame structure, set on a rise south of County Road 4 northeast of Pickerel Lake. It has Gothic Revival styling, and a bell tower capped by a steeple with flared roof. Built in 1904, it is one of a few surviving period country churches in the region, and is distinctive for its use by a Norwegian-American community in an area predominantly populated by Polish immigrants.[2]
