The Drangedal church was consecrated in 1775 after the previous church on the site had fallen into ruin and become too small. The church was built of wood with a T-shaped plan and was named the Church of Emmanuel. In 1839-42, a choir was built to the east, so that the church took the shape of a cross. At the same time, it was panelled on the outside and inside.
