The first church in Øksfjord was built in 1842. In 1898, a new church was built on the same site. This building was designed by the architect D.G. Evjen. In 1944, as the German army was retreating near the end of World War II, they burned the church to the ground. The parish built a new church on the same spot in 1954.
