Romsås Church was built in 1995 on an old church that burned down in 1986. The new church was partially erected on the old foundation wall. The church on Romsås is a working church built in brick by the builder Knut Skutle according to plans by the architect Arne Sæther. The style is postmodernist and gives the building a resemblance to industrial buildings.
