The conversion was carried out by the builder Svend Bakke according to the designs of the architect N.S.D. Eckhoff. During the restoration of the church in 1954-57 under the direction of the architect Finn Bryn, the nave and the preserved tower walls were stripped of their plaster and then plastered, so that the masonry became visible.
