History

The new parish of Hoeggen was established in 1979 when it was separated from the large Strinda Church parish. The congregation first rented a room at the Utleira school and then later at the Hoeggen school. In 1987, the congregation bought an old barracks building to use as an interim church on the road Nordre Risvolltun. In the late 1990s, the congregation hired the architecture firm Madsø Sveen to design a permanent church. The new church was completed in 1997. It was consecrated on 12 October 1997.[3][4]
