It is located in the village of Ingøy on the island of Ingøya.

It is one of the churches for the Måsøy parish which is part of the Hammerfest prosti (deanery) in the Diocese of Nord-Hålogaland.

The picture was painted by Christian Sinding Larsen in 1930.

This church was heavily damaged in a hurricane in the early 1880s and had it to be rebuilt in 1883.

That church remained until it was burned down by the German forces when they retreated from Finnmark in 1944.
