History
The first church in Storfjord was built in 1917. It was a school house from 1911 that was renovated and expanded in 1917 to make it into a church. That building was located about 100 m northwest of the present church site. That building was jointly used as a school and a church for many years. After World War II in 1952, the parish built a new, larger church, just to the southwest of the old church. The new church was consecrated in 1952. Afterwards, the old building was solely used as a school.
