Tolga church is an octagonal church built in 1840, with typical 18th-century shapes, clearly inspired by Røros church. The church has probably been painted white since 1864. The church was built by John Eriksen Berg after drawings by Rasmus Svendsen Aspaas.
The church in Røros, dating from 1784, is known for its large bell tower, which is a well-known symbol of Røros. The exterior of the church is whitewashed with grey details. The construction of the church in Røros was a prestigious project, and it became one of the most beautiful churches in Norway at that time. The altarpiece with a picture of the Last Supper was painted by the drawing teacher Johan Jørgen Lyng in 1782.
