The earliest existing historical records of the church date back to the year 1340, but the church was not built that year.
The first church was a stave church and it was torn down in the 1620s and a new church was built to replace it on the same site.
The new church was built using some of the materials from the old church.
The nave measures 11.5 by 8 metres (38 ft × 26 ft) and the square choir measures 5.5 metres (18 ft) on each side.
The church has a unique, large, octagonal-shaped steeple that is not in proportion with the rest of the small building.
In the 1960s, a new foundation wall was laid under the church to prevent the problems caused by significant rotting of some of the wood.
