Skrautvål Church

Skrautvål Church is a cruciform church made of slatted wood, with an outer panel and a tower in the middle of the cross. In the last century, the church has undergone several minor improvements. In 1907, new windows were installed and the double door of the north cross-arm was installed. In 1953, the walls were drained inside and the floor of the sacristy was painted. The church was restored in 1971-74 when the old sacristy door was restored and a chimney and oven in the west crossbeam were removed.
