History
The first chapel in Børselv was built in 1909 by the architect K. Tessan. It was originally founded as a Sami mission chapel, called Børselv kapell. The chapel was burned down in 1944 when the retreating German army burned most buildings in Finnmark. After the war when funds were available (in 1957–1958), the church was rebuilt. The new church was consecrated on 16 March 1958.
