History

The church, which is constructed of fieldstone, was built around 1300 and included a longhouse and a small bell tower. At the end of the 15th century, the wood roof was replaced by a brick star vault with church wall paintings signed by Albertus Pictor.[1] In the 18th century, the windows were made larger and the current bell tower was built.

Features

The pulpit with six-sided basket was added in 1665. The baptismal font, made of Scottish sandstone by sculptor Erik Sand, was completed in 1951.
