In the 1850s, plans were made for a new church on the island of Helgøya. The new church would be an annex to the Nes Church parish.In 1868, permission was granted to build the new church on the Svennerud farm. Of two competing drawings, the parish chose the design by Jacob Wilhelm Nordan. The lead builder was Ole Stensrud from Vang. The new church was to be a half-timbered long church in the Swiss chalet style with about 200 seats. The new building was consecrated on 7 December 1870. Media gallery
