History
The first church in Øystese was a stave church that was built before the year 1300. The church was in use until 1868 when it was torn down to make room for a new, much larger church. The present wooden church was built in 1868 by the architect C. Erichson, using plans by Jacob Wilhelm Nordan. The church seats about 500 people.[3]
