Tysnes Church was built in 1868 on Tysnes Farm, where there had been a church since the Middle Ages. However, the site of the church was considered off-centre, and in 1906 the church was dismantled and moved to Gjerstad farm on the other side of Gjervikvåggen. Georg Bull's drawings were lost, and new ones were prepared by Hartvig Sverdrup Eckhoff.
