It stands on a gentle grassy slope leading down to the Nisser fjord. Built of stone (a rarity in Norway) around 1150, it is dedicated to Norway's patron saint, St. Olav. The ceiling is decorated with 20 panels by Thomas Blixius, painted in 1714. The church has preserved its original portal, whose arcade depicts two dragons entwined in a struggle frozen for eternity. The small cemetery that surrounds it exudes a striking atmosphere.
