The Rossabø church is a modernist church from 1972. The church is built of cast-in-place concrete and belongs to the style of brutalism. It is a 'working church', i.e. a church that, in addition to the parish hall, has other rooms related to the work of the congregation. These are, for example, the parish houses, the offices of the church employees.
