The dome, with a diameter of 27 metres, is one of the largest in Italy.

Parts of the church in Mora originate from the old stone church of the late 13th or early 14th century. The main design of the church took place in the 1480s when the church was rebuilt as a three-aisled church under new Gothic star vaults in the nave and cross vaults in the side aisles. The sacristy was extended to the north in the 1720s to double its size. During the restoration, this gap was replaced by a gallery barrier. During the restoration of 1964-1965 by David Dahl, the building council, extensive strengthening work was carried out, including on the arches.
