The church belonged to the bishops of Roskilde but was administrated from Skovkloster Abbey in Næstved, a situation which caused local dissatisfaction.
On 31 December 1678, the Tybjerg and Aversi churches were transferred to Tybjerggaard, which was given to Adam Levin Knuth [da].
A tower, sacristy, porch and south chapel were constructed in brick in the Late Gothic period (c. 1500).
The triumphal arch is decorated with the coat of arms of the Basse family, featuring wild boars and squirrels.
The coat of arms of Otto von Voss, who served as bailiff on Tybjerggaard until 1434, is seen on the southern part of the skjoldbue.
