It is located just south of the village of Lundamo, on the east side of the European route E06 highway and the river Gaula.

It is the church for the Horg 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 1893 using plans drawn up by the architect Carl J. Bergstrøm.

Many churches in Norway were sold to private owners so the King could raise money to help pay off war debts.

It had many different owners over the years before it was finally bought by the people of the parish in 1797 for a very cheap price.
