Froan Chapel (Norwegian: Froan kapell) is a small church on the island of Sauøy in the Froan islands in Frøya, Sør-Trøndelag, Norway. 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 beginning in 1906, confirmation was held here.

The church is part of the Frøya parish in the Orkdal deanery in the Diocese of Nidaros.
