The church was built according to the designs of the parish priest, Nils Christian Hald, with the approval and minor remarks of the head of state Christian H. Grosch. A church on the site is first mentioned in 1445. The medieval building was demolished in 1629 and a long wooden church was built in its place. The wood from the 1629 church was reused when the new church was built in 1844.
