It is located in the village of Isfjorden, about 6 kilometres (3.7 mi) east of the town of Åndalsnes.

It is the church for the Hen parish which is part of the Indre Romsdal prosti (deanery) in the Diocese of Møre.

Over the years, a number of repairs were carried out on the church, most of them due to rot damage.

This new, white stone church has an onion dome on top of a central tower on the roof.

The building is a neo-Romanesque stone long church that has been covered in white plaster on the exterior.
