Planning for a new chapel in the Brandval Finnskog area began in the 1860s. Ole Bergqvist was hired to design and build the new chapel. It was a wooden long church building with a small tower on the roof of the nave. There was a small sacristy on the east end of the choir. It was constructed in 1868 and consecrated on 2 December 1868. In 1923, interior wall panels were added to cover up the log walls. In 1948–1949, electric lights and power were added into the building. In 1954, a large new tower and church porch were added on the west end of the nave. The old tower was removed at this time. Ola B. Aasness designed this addition to the building and Mentz Sæter was the lead builder for the project. In 1962–63, the chapel was thoroughly renovated inside and the nave got its current look both in terms of color and in terms of decor. Originally, the benches had been narrow and steep in the back, and there had been room for 250 people. The number of seats today is 160. Media gallery
