It is the church for the Hølanda parish which is part of the Gauldal prosti (deanery) in the Diocese of Nidaros.

The white, wooden church was built in a cruciform style in 1848 using plans drawn up by the architect Christian Heinrich Grosch.

Not much is known about the 1724 church either, but it was noted that the parish priest Tarald Ross and the assistant rector, Hans Skanke, got into a fist fight during the consecration.

[4][5] In 1803, the church got a new tower and in 1840, the entire roof was replaced because it was in poor condition.

Christian Heinrich Grosch was hired to make plans for the new church and those drawings were approved by a royal decree on 29 August 1846.
