The church is built of stone and was originally built in the 12th century. In 1818 the church's roof burned and in 1872 the tower collapsed, which is why the church was in great need of refurbishment.

Hugg carefully adapted the medieval nave of the old church and the Kagg burial chancel to the new church.
