History

During the early 1960s, planning began for an annex chapel for the northern parts of Søndre Land. The new chapel would be subordinate to the main Fluberg Church. The parish hired Per Nordan to design the new wooden building. It has a long church design, but the whole building is shaped like an elongated octagon. The new building was completed and consecrated in 1965. Around the turn of the 21st century, the chapel was re-titled as a church within the Fluberg parish.[3][4]
