It is located in the village of Heimdal, about 1.5 kilometres (0.93 mi) south of Kolstad Church.
The modern, white, concrete church was built in a rectangular design in 1960 using plans drawn up by the architect Herman Semmelmann.
In 1960, their dream was realized when a new chapel was constructed in Heimdal.
The building was consecrated on 6 November 1960 by Bishop Arne Fjellbu.
In 1971, the chapel was upgraded to be a full parish church.
