The Ulnes church is a medieval stone church with a rectangular nave and narrower, lower choirs. On the ridge above the nave is a square turret with a spire. The church was probably built in the 13th century. After falling into disuse, it was rebuilt with a slightly larger nave in 1735. In the 1890s a porch was built in front of the entrance to the west and the sacristy to the east of the chancel, but these parts were renewed in the 1950s.
