The Flatdal church was consecrated in 1654 and replaced a stave church on the site. Parts of the Stave church were reused in the church. Originally the church was a simple long church with a sliding roof, but in 1908 the church was given its present design, with a tower at the west end of the nave and a sacristy near the chancel. The interior is marked by the reconstruction of 1908.
