It is one of the churches for the Lånke parish which is part of the Stjørdal prosti (deanery) in the Diocese of Nidaros.

This new building was built about 20 metres (66 ft) to the north-northeast from the previous church site.

The new choir area was built slightly to the west of the previous church's choir and the new nave was built on land that was slightly west of the old church building.

The new church was designed by Ole Røising (and the plans were corrected by the architecture consultant for the Ministry of Church Affairs), and the leader of the construction process was builder Edvard Leirtrø.

The church was restored in 1934 according to plans by John Egil Tverdahl.
