The church dates from 1847 and contains things donated by seamen who survived lethal storms on the sea, maintaining the tradition of almissu (seamen in danger promised, according to Nordic tradition, to donate to churches or to God if they got back home alive).

In August most of the people in Porkeri are busy with cutting grass for hay, drying it and storing for winter feed for their sheep.
