This is the only stave church remaining in Vestfold and built in two phases. The first part was built around 1150, in the Roman style, with the second phase following approximately 100 years later and built in the Gothic style.
It is is one of only three preserved stave churches having a stave or pillar in the middle of the church.
The church has 12 different staves symbolising the apostles, in addition to the one in the middle, which symbolises Christ, all of which serve to support the building. Each stave is unique among the others. Along the walls one can see 8-10 crosses which were dedicated at the time the church was first used.
Originally, the church had an earthen floor, with benches along the walls where old and weak people might sit. Others had to remain standing during the mass.
The altar dates from around 1630.
The church was restored in 1948. Under the floor, 5 well preserved skeletons were found without coffins and just a thin layer of dirt over them. A man, two women and two children. They were left in place. It is believed they were victims of the Black death around 1349.
