The church of Fillan dates from 1789. The church is the oldest existing church on Hitra and replaced the smaller church of Our Saviour built in 1686. Some objects from the Church of Our Saviour have been preserved, notably the pulpit from 1689 and the altarpiece from 1691. The old altarpiece represents a vision of Christ bleeding that King Christian IV is said to have had in 1625.
