Froan Chapel (Norwegian: Froan kapell) is a parish church in Frøya municipality in Trøndelag county, Norway. It is located on the island of Sauøy in the Froan islands. It is one of the churches for the Frøya parish which is part of the Orkdal prosti (deanery) in the Diocese of Nidaros. The white, wooden church was built in a long church style in 1904 by the architect Nils Ryjord. The church seats about 180 people.

The chapel was built in 1904 due to the long distance the residents had to travel to get to the Sletta Church. There are five worship services held at the chapel each year, and confirmation instruction was held here beginning in 1906.
